[amibroker] Re: Rename of Symbol

["elee67" <elee67@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for the quick response....The merge would work great..however,
there are probably 5-20+ symbol changes on a daily basis...so trying
to figure out if there was abway to automate that via afl or jscript...

for jscript...i was thinking something like this :

oStock1 = oStocks( Ticker1 );
oStock2 = oStocks.add( Ticker2 );
var Qty = oStock1.Quotations.Count;

for( i = 0; i < Qty; i++ )
{
    oQuote1 = oStock1.Quotations( i );
    oQuote2 = oStock2.Quotations.add(oQuote1.Date);
    oQuote2.Date = oQuote1.Date
    oQuote2.Close = oQuote1.Close
    oQuote2.Open = oQuote1.Open
    oQuote2.High = oQuote1.High
    oQuote2.Low = oQuote1.Low
    oQuote2.Volume = oQuote1.Volume
    oQuote2.OpenInt =  oQuote1.OpenInt
}

But not sure if there is a better way

all my data is move under the new symbol and AB deletes old symbol and
data.
