Check this script, it will run AB every time you try to close the it for 5 times
count = 5 ;
while ( count )
{
AB = WScript.CreateObject ("Broker.Application");
AB.Visible = true;
status = "";
while (AB.Visible)
{
if ( status != "DataBase Loaded")
{
AB.LoadDatabase("C:\\Program Files\\AmiBroker\\Data") ;
status = "DataBase Loaded";
}
WScript.Sleep ( 100 );

Hello everybody.
I'm looking for some help in working out the recommended system requirements to run amibroker, IB controller, debug viewer and TWS all at the same time.
So I have a live db Algo that runs in amibroker with IB controller connected to TWS which I have been paper trading for the last few months now with no problems. My old laptop that I have been testing it on is a 5-year-old Toshiba I 7 quad core 2.3 GHz – 3.3 GHz running 16 GB DDR 3 RAM and a decent video card (3 GB). It has hundreds of AFL formulas, 5 years worth of emails, thousands of photos videos and tons of other programs/junk that I have accumulated over 5 years not to mention it has the dreaded Norton Internet Security installed as well!
I bought a new laptop to dedicate to the system, it is a Toshiba I 5 dual core 1.7 GHz – 2.7 GHz running 4 GB DDR 3 RAM and a Intel HD graphics card (not a great one). I uninstalled all the bloat including the preinstalled Norton Internet Security. When I started testing the same Algo as above I have found that amibroker crashes intermittently but usually after the program has been running for 6 or so hours. I live in Australia and the system works on US stocks, so I set it at about 8 or 9 PM then go to bed. Amibroker usually crashes around midnight to 3 AM my time. TWS is still open and running fine in the morning, as is IB controller and debug viewer. It's just amibroker that closes. I still thought the new laptop would have enough grunt as amibroker is not resource thirsty and TWS's recommended requirements were below the specs of the new laptop.... But maybe not all running at once.
Any help would be appreciated, including what machines you guys are running for the same type of task.
Many thanks
Brent.
