Multiple Ascii File Import

Postby davewolfs » 06 Feb 2013

One should really have the ability to select multiple files to import.

I am importing fairly large files at 4 per year. Ideally I shouldn't have to click through each file and wait 5 minutes for an import to take place.

I've also just run into the same problem. I've been working with historical data that was stored as one file per year so didn't mind importing these one at a time. However, I've come to import tick data (bid and ask) that is stored in monthly files, so 24 files per year for one symbol!

N.B. One of the other trading platforms allows multiple file selection and import if the files are in the same format

I couldn't find an existing feature request so I've added one - please up-vote it!
