Re: [amibroker] Snippet: Detecting Pricing Errors

Coolman 09.30

I think this is a good idea. Question: How do you suggest we add to the thread so the group will know its about a new snippet being added and not just a continuation of the "Detecting Pricing Errors" thread? Maybe a more generic name for the thread. Just thinking out loud... Also would like to see snippets for beginning coders and not just advanced code snippets.

Hello,

Snippets are about the biggest editing time-saver AB has ever introduced. If you have a good assortment of snippets that reflects your programming style you can now implement/test a new system idea in minutes instead of hours.

I thought I would start a thread in which we could share Snippets now and then. Please join in on the effort to promote/share the use of snippets!

Happy Trading,
Herman
