Hello Tomasz, yes, ist was explained:
Import ASCII AmiBroker has easy-to-use and flexible quotation import feature. This document describes advanced concepts of AmiBroker ASCII importer. Novice users should start with ASCII Import Wizard. ...an I am a novice user. So I tried to import my Data with the import wizard. How should I know that tickdata import is not supported by the wizard? I had to ask it. Now I know I have to use the importer, but it would be much more work to intodruce myself in preparing the data file...
