[amibroker] Re: How to create a new ticker?

["Claud Hou" <hclaud_98@xxxxxxxxx>]

Appreciate if anyone can point out what I missed.

Obviously there is no problem to plot this:
SPX_VIX=Foreign( "^SPX", "Close" )/Foreign( "^VIX", "Close" );

My question is how to define this thing as a "stock".

Thanks.
