UPDATE: AmiQuote 3.21 public version is available now.

AmiQuote 3.21 has been announced here: http://www.amibroker.com/devlog/2017/07/11/amiquote-3-21-released/

AmiQuote 3.21 is not a standalone installer, therefore – it requires AmiBroker installed on your computer and the installation path should point to the folder where AmiBroker is installed.

To run the installer – use the link at:
http://www.amibroker.com/bin/aq3210.exe (119KB) – 32 bit version
http://www.amibroker.com/bin/aq3210x64.exe (143KB) – 64 bit version

Make sure to download correct version. If you have 32-bit AmiBroker, use 32-bit AmiQuote. If you have 64-bit AmiBroker, use 64-bit AmiQuote. If you have both, install both.

32-bit version of AmiBroker

The correct folder is automatically detected if AmiBroker is installed so you don’t need to change it. The default installation path is the following:

64-bit version of AmiBroker

The correct folder is automatically detected if AmiBroker is installed so you don’t need to change it. The default installation path is the following:

TROUBLESHOOTING:

1. If you are getting “Failed to update registry, use REGEDIT” message, then you need to run AmiQuote just once with administrator rights – to do so click on AmiQuote icon with right mouse button and select “Run As Administrator”. Do this just once. Don’t run as admin all the time because automatic import won’t work.
2. If you are not able to download more than 2 years worth of data it means you entered too early “From” date. For example if you enter 1900 as “from” date you won’t get more than recent 2 years. But if you enter more resonable starting date such as year 2000, then you will be able to download 17 years worth of data
3. AmiQuote 3.20 uses new method that should be independent from IE version installed, however if the download hangs on Windows XP – new Yahoo Finance pages are incompatible with Windows XP, and specifically with Internet Explorer 9 or lower that Windows XP shipped with. Windows XP is obsolete and not supported anymore by Yahoo. You need at least Internet Explorer 10 to be installed (Windows 7)
4. If it still does not work – you did something wrong. The program works fine, as long above steps are PRECISELY done. Rinse and repeat until it clicks.
