This 
will step through your stocks but note that this may take a long time to execute 
if you have a lot of stocks in your watchlists! However, to get Backtest results 
you need to use the AA Optimizer; it will automatcally Backtest all stocks in a 
watchlist. You can Automate sequential backtests also, see Help on Optimizing 
and Automation.

  Newbie questionLooking for some direction on how I 
  would implement a straight-forward looping procedure in AFL. Suppose I 
  have several watchlists and each watchlist contains a different number of 
  stock tickers. Is there a way to automatically (rather than manually 
  starting the program for each watchlist) begin with the first watchlist, 
  run some analysis on each ticker, report some backtesting results, then 
  move on to the subsequent watchlists one by one and do the same analysis? 
  I don't understand how to refer to the watchlists and also how to run 
  the analysis on a different number of tickers for each watchlist. 
  In my non-AFL mind, I'm thinkingi=1 to numwatchlists  
  j=1 to numstocks in watchlist(i)      Analyze 
  stock j      j=j+1  end  report 
  backtest results  i=i+1endCheck
