top industries, sectors, etc.

Hello,
 
IndustryID(0) returns  a number.
You can not add string to the number in AFL.  

You have to convert number to string first 
using WriteVal function:
 


Bull = CCI<FONT 
size=2>(20<FONT 
size=2>)>0 
;
//Industries - Number of Bulls
AddToComposite(<FONT face=Arial 
size=2>Bull, "~i" 
+ <FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff 
size=2>WriteVal( IndustryID(), 1.0 ) 
,"C"<FONT 
size=2>,1);
Buy=0<FONT face=Arial 
size=2>;

Subject: [amibroker] Why works this 
function not?

HelloTomasz and 
others,
<FONT face=Arial 
size=2> 
I want to create 
composite indicators with the following code:
IndustryID(0) 
should give the number of the industry, but it seems that it don't works in 
this combination.
Make I something 
wrong? I have tried the same formula with +<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff 
size=2>name() instead +<FONT face=Arial 
color=#0000ff size=2>IndustryID() and this 
works.
<FONT face=Arial 
size=2> 
I hope for 
help
