Hello,
Thank you Donald for giving me the feedback on new AmiBroker 3.30 beta for Amiga.

You could be right, but I am not forcing anyone to use my scheme of sectors/industries.
You can rewrite broker.sectors and broker.industries files to define your own default scheme.
However once you have saved the workspace the categories (markets, groups, sectors
industries) are saved into broker.workspace file along with stock data. You can delete this
file if you want to use defaults (taken from broker.markets, broker.groups, broker.sectors and broker.industires) again.
> I didn't see an explanation as to why so many industries have the same number.
The numbers at front of industy names are "Sector IDs". Those numbers decide to
which sector given industry belongs to. Because several industries may belong to one
sector - you need to put the same number for sector Id.
> The Amiga tables also display the PC's "CR" in the sector & industry gadgets,

OK. I happened by mistake. To fix it just launch simple text editor load broker.sectors and
broker.industries files and replace all "CR" with "" (empty string).

I guess that I have to write some "How to" document then :-)

I hope not :-)

Yes, this is beta version not everything is working.

Full version should have some new ARexx commands.

Not all splits may be detected by AmiBroker. AmiBroker detects only days when price
changed more than +/-20%. If a stock is very volatile this may result in several wrong
split detections.
