Which
AmiBroker Edition is suitable for me ?
All Editions of
AmiBroker are Realtime Editions. So even if you choose AmiBroker
Standard Edition, you will be able to see live charts which are updated
realtime. The main difference between AmiBroker Standard Edition and
AmiBroker Professional Edition is that while AmiBroker Standard Edition
lets you see real-time charts upto 1 min timeframe (smallest candle) and
do corresponding analysis (Scanning / Exploration / Back-testing and
Optimization on charts upto 1 min timeframe), AmiBroker Professional
does not have any such limitation and can let you see charts of any
duration (5 sec., 15 sec., or even tick chart) and do corresponding
analysis. There are other differences too and for detailed comparison,
please see the comparison table below.
