TUTORIAL: HOW TO USE AMIBROKER WITH IQFEED REAL TIME DATA

One-time setup

IMPORTANT: IQFeed provides unfiltered data. This means that no tick is filtered out therefore you may see a lot of bad ticks. This will change when IQFeed implements bad tick filter.

If you don't have IQFeed CONNECTION MANAGER already installed you have to install it first.
