Manual Price Data Entry for DreamTai

DreamTai uses free price data from Google Finance and Yahoo Finance and other sources. Sometimes, they are late in updating their data servers, so it shows older data.

Usually, this issue corrects itself in a day or two.

A paid price data subscription from vendors is expensive,($100 per month per subscriber) that is why DreamTai uses free price data, so that investors can purchase DreamTai at a reasonable price.

You can manually update the stock prices. It just takes a few minutes and you can get the buy/sell signals




MANUAL DATA ENTRY


If you want, you can also manually update the price data.

The price data files are in the following folder:

C:\DreamTai_50221\data\pricedata

You can open any data file using Notepad.

Example: For Microsoft, the file name is MSFT.csv.
On opening the price data file, you will see the data is in the following format
