This board never ceases
to amaze me. Y<SPAN
class=689545005-07022003>our efforts are very much appreciated, With your
suggested changes it works like a charm. This will be a real time saver for
me over the Rt click "send to watch list" method
I was previously employing.

Thats ok,
its one of those things where you start out to write just an outline and by the
time your finished its just as easy to complete it and its something that I will
use later too. I'm sure others could put this to use as well.

If you
want to limit your scan to Watchlist 5 then you can change the code
from:
<FONT face="Comic Sans MS"
size=2>
<FONT face="Comic Sans MS"
size=2>this
<FONT
face="Comic Sans MS" size=2>oAA.Filter( 0, "market" ) =
2
<FONT
face="Comic Sans MS" size=2>
<FONT
face="Comic Sans MS" size=2>to this
<FONT
face="Comic Sans MS" size=2>oAA.Filter( 0, "watchlist" )
= 5
<FONT face="Comic Sans MS"
size=2>
That will
have to effect of running the AFL on watchlist 5.

<SPAN

<SPAN

Wow! I
did not expect you to go to the trouble of writing the whole script out. Thank
you so much!
<SPAN
class=384211905-07022003>
I
adjusted the AFL to limit the exploration to a given watchlist using
filter=inwatchlist(5) but if I understand you correctly the line
<SPAN
class=384211905-07022003>
<FONT face="Comic Sans MS"
size=2>oAA.Filter( 0, "market" ) = 2 filters the
exploration to Market=2. Is that correct and if so to scan only a given
watchlist would I simply eliminate that line or do I need to modify it to meet
either the specific watchlist or group 255 for the whole
database?
Thanks for your help

You will
also have to make a few little changes to the vbs file to suit your specific
requirements.
Look for
these lines and change as required:
<FONT face="Comic Sans MS"
size=2>
<FONT face="Comic Sans MS"
size=2>oAA.Filter( 0, "market" ) = 2
' set
apply to and range oAA.ApplyTo = 2 '// use filtersoAA.RangeMode = 2 '//
use all available quotes

Jayson: add stock to wachtlist via AFL-code
Hi
Jayson,
<SPAN
class=531083004-07022003>
Ive
created a routine that is run outside of Amibroker (just double-click the vbs
file, its simular to a jscript file). There is also a sample afl file you will
have to customise that will be the basis of your sector to watchlist code, you
must put this AFL file in your Amibroker **Database** directory before running
the code.
<SPAN
class=531083004-07022003>
So the
steps are:
<SPAN
class=531083004-07022003>
1 Place
the "MyAFLFormula.afl" file in the relevent Amibroker *Database*
directory
2
Customise the AFL code to suit your requirements and save.
3 Place
the "RunAFLExplore.vbs" file in your Amibroker Scripts directory and double
click to run.
<SPAN
class=531083004-07022003>
<SPAN
class=531083004-07022003>There are many other things you could do with this
type of code, the sky is the limit when you think about it.
<SPAN
class=531083004-07022003>
<FONT
face="Comic Sans MS" size=2>If you have any
questions please fire away.
<SPAN
class=531083004-07022003>
<SPAN
class=531083004-07022003>Regards,
William
Peters
ps. <FONT
face="Comic Sans MS" size=2>There might be a way
to run the whole thing from inside of Amibroker, i'll think about
that.

<SPAN
class=313363915-06022003>William,
could
you elaborate? Spefically what I would like to do is run a basket of stocks then
assign the results to specific watch lists based on thier Sector assignments. So
from the list of say 500 stocks send all the Cap goods candidates to watchlist
"A", the Retail Candidates to watchlist "B" etc.
<SPAN

You could
do it via the AA window using AFL and jscript or vbscript.

I do
not believe there is though it would save me a lot of time updating on a weekly
basis. AB is like the weather in New England ( Eastern US)....If you don't like
it just give it a minute, it will surely change....
