[amibroker] Foreign and Data Holes

[Terry <TH@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have an indicator based on the ^IXIC. It runs as a function so I can call it whenever. I know the ^IXIC data is correct (no holes anyway). Depending on the symbol I have selected I get DIFFERENT ANSWERS for the value of my indicator and thus different BUY/SELLS. I have determined this is because there are data holes in some of the other symbols. 

According to the documentation: Please note that if you have data holes in currently selected symbol then in order to synchronize bars Foreign function will remove bars that exist in Foreign symbol but do not exist in currently selected symbol. 

Question 1: Since my indicator using the ^IXIC is the PRIMARY symbol, is there a way to FILL the selected symbol to match the Foreign symbol instead of deleting data from the Foreign symbol?

Question 2: Is there a function or formula to detect data holes? I reloaded my history and solved 99% of the problems (can’t fix, for example, ^N225 as Japan probably does not have same market days as U.S.). It seems there should be an easy way for AB to let you know you have data holes.

Thanks.

Terry
