Data import - 09/13/16 17:01
Hi, I'm a new Zorro user and have only gone through the tutorials so far.
I'm wondering if someone could please help me understand how to convert data to the Zorro format. I use Linnsoft Investor RT and get my data from there (in CSV format), and would like to use Zorro for backtesting.
From the manual:
"For converting price data from an external source to the Zorro format, separate it into years, convert it to a list of T6 or T1 structs, and store it in a binary file with the name described above"
How is this done practically?
I have very good knowledge in programming, but not so much in compiled languages like C.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!!
