Re: [amibroker] question to Add to composite

Thomas,
 
1. You should select the watch list and re-run the scan. Is it 
what you do?
2. The Foreign() is synchronized to base (selected) security. 
If base security does not have quotes for all trading days
   some bars from foreign tickers must be removed to 
synchronize. This affects the display
3. Apparently you don't have all symbols updated correctly 
(for all trading days) - down spikes show days when only a few
symbols have data - these could be false quotes from 
weekends.

Subject: [amibroker] question to Add to 
composite

Hello,
 
I have started to use the Add to composite 
function and have now 3 questions. I am sure, that this was discussed anywhere 
before, so sorry sorry  that i ask this now again.
 
For my first example i have created a simple 
counter, which should show me the number of tickers in my 
database.
Here is the formula:
 <FONT face=Arial 
size=5>
AddToComposite( 1, "~Ticker_Counter", "I", 1 + 
4);
Buy = 0; 
Graph0 = Foreign("~Ticker_Counter", "I" ); 

 
 
1) Why works the scan only, when i select all 
tickers?  When i select any watchlist, it doesn't work. Is this normal 
?
 
 
2) Why is the graph different when i change the 
ticker (see snapshots)
 
 
3) The formula counts simple the number of 
tickers in my database and i have updated all tickers for one 
year.
Why are there so large spikes, especially when i 
select my created ticker   "~Ticker_Counter"
There the spikes are sometimes going down to 
9     ???
 
Thanks for your help
