When I went back to QP recently, I did not sign up for SPP since I am now concentrating only on 2x +/- funds. There are not that many of them so I just created my watchlists by hand. I did want to get the funds themselves into AB so I could access them there, but for testing, etc I generally use the benchmark indices rather than the funds themselves. QP lacks several of these benchmarks, especially for the foreign markets, so for these I substitute the most popular ETF's instead. > > BTW, if you like the 2x funds, don't forget about DireXion. Their American funds are 2.5-beta. Also, for anyone that might not be aware, ProFunds introduced their 2x +/- ETF's last month. See www.proshares.com for more info. > > Steve > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Ken Close > To: [email protected] > Sent: Tuesday, August 29, 2006 6:31 AM > Subject: RE: [amibroker] Quotes Plus Mutual Funds > > > Steve: > > Many thanks. Now that I am signed up, am discovering various unfriendly aspects to the program(s) that I guess I did not discover or try hard enough during the trial period. But I want the data (mainly the ranks which can be imported into AB) so I will have to slog thru a learning curve, just like with ..... well ...... AB. I dont want to do complex things, just isolate ETFs and Rydex/Profunds Mutual Funds. Should be simple and almost intuitive. It is not. > > Thanks for the response. > > Ken > > PS: If you dont mind, is the easiest way to get a Watchlist of the Rydex/Profunds Mutual Funds to import via a lst or txt file of the symbols?? > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------- > From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Steve Dugas > Sent: Monday, August 28, 2006 3:28 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [amibroker] Quotes Plus Mutual Funds > > > Ken - By Default, QP plugin does not retrieve MF's or futures.

I have mutual fund data on my drive (can plot with QP charting package), but I do not see how to make AB do that. > > Thanks for your suggestions. > > Ken > Please note that this group is for discussion between users only.
