Hi,
is it possible to write into script something to download latest CSV file from any adress (FTP/WEB)...to have latest data without manual downloading CSV file every day?

Yes, it is possible.

P.S. Peter, WLD5 is not freeware. Your first trial of Wealth-Lab Developer 5 ended about a month ago. ;)

So it means, I will open the chart and data will be downloaded from the specific location? How to do that, there is nothing about it in script guide?

Yes you are right, I am running another trial under different registration at work. I will not buy a SW at 800$ price without knowing and trying all features I need...

It's possible to code it using a C# routine in the Strategy code. And the statement above is not correct - it actually is in the WealthScript Guide.

That's why there is a 30-day free unrestricted trial.
