I treat Amibroker as a development tool to analyse winning patterns and trade. Just like Visual Basic or Pl/SQL. In all, i try to use best practises so it minimises any guess work.
There could be things like, common routines, include files, on and on and on. I am just trying to open up the thinking floor to identify best practses in Amibroker that i can mimiic. so far, Acronis is identified as a good backup recover tool. What else should be in the best practise. regards Seede --- In [email protected], "directaim" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > I guess you are aware it is possible to open the Acronis backup image > and copy any paticular file back. > > Till the drive image is made, > I FTP daily changes to a web host > which costs $6/month for 10 Gigs disk space. > > Files for which the name and location remains constant: > a batch file will FTP all with one double click. > > Regards, > directaim > > --- In [email protected], "murthysuresh" <money@> wrote: > > > > Acronis is complete backup and recovery. > > 1.
