Re: [amibroker] Re: QP-Only Stocks

Hello,

"Issue type" is available via GetExtraData function:

See for example this exploration:

Filter=1;
AddTextColumn( GetExtraData("issuetype" ), "IssueType" );

---------
GetExtraData returns one character text describing the type:


Filter=GetExtraData("IssueType")=="0";

gives common stocks.

You may ask QuotesPlus support for all possible codes they
use in Master_Rec 
but a few are as follows:

"0" - common 
"1" - preferred 
"F" - ADR
"A" - average / index

Best regards,
