RE: [amibroker] Re: How to detect if 'foreign' is successful or not ?

[Salil V Gangal <salil_gangal@xxxxxxxxx>]

Chuck,
 
If you get a chance, try the example I gave in 'Guru'.  Use one of the tickers that exists in the database and one that does not.  Please let me know if this technique is 'successful' (!) or not.

Why can't you just say:
 
x = IsEmpty(Foreign("Symbol","Close",fixup=1));
 
This should work if your Foreign instrument has no holes and the date range is the same or longer than the stock you are evaluating at the time.
 
Works for me... unless I don't understand the question.Send BUG REPORTS to bugs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxSend SUGGESTIONS to suggest@xxxxxxxxxxxxx-----------------------------------------Post AmiQuote-related messages ONLY to: amiquote@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (Web page: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/amiquote/messages/)--------------------------------------------Check group FAQ at: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/amibroker/files/groupfaq.html Your use of Yahoo!
