You could try using a dummy set of tickers with the same code but with an
additional letter in the name This would require you to just alter the
ticker symbol in the csv file, which is not difficult in excel.
Eg "TAP" becomes "~TAP" These would become the place to import your
indicator numbers in place of the normal OHLCVI
Then to use this with the base ticker use the Foreign function to display
the indicator values
TickName = "~" + Name();
ForO = Foreign(TickName,"O",1);
Then just plot the value of ForO
Alternatively can you create the indicators in AB and save the trouble. Much
easier this way

Subject: [amibroker] Importing Indicators from File
I have a number of csv files that are named <ticker>.csv and they
have a number of rows of data in the following format..
date, ind1, ind2, ind3
The dates for the rows may of may not correspond to the OHLCV array
for that ticker - i.e. some days will not have any data
Can anyone please explain (or better, show me an example) how I can
use this information to create indicators in AB - i.e. set up an
indicator that reads from the appropriate ticker file (I presume in
Java/VB script?) and displays the indicator mapping the dates
correctly. Where the data is missing for a day, the previous days
data should be used.
Better still I'd like to use this indicator in several other internal
indicators - e.g. dividing by the ticker close price. Would this be
better implemented by creating a activeX component and referring to
this rather than copying the data-import code each time I make a new
indicator? If so, would you happen to have some (VB?) source code
that might give me a starter?
Alternatively, are there some internal variable arrays that I could
load this data to and refer to them in plotting the indicator and
buidling my secondary indicators?
Many many thanks.
Andy.
