George,
you can copy paste the scans/screens into AA (automatice analysis
= ! Icon) or the indicators into Indicator Builder =(Hammer Icon) or
commentary codes into Guru = Newspaper roll Icon.
Once a code is copied and pasted, then save it in the AFL or Formula
folder under Amibroker. (you have other folders to choose from it
you want to use them). Once saved, you can access the code via
either option (AA, IB, or Guru). Some codes can be used for all 3
options. Some codes are "Composites" that must be scanned in AA
first, then you can apply the "Indicator" that was formed from the
composite scan.
AB does take some learning. I had TC for 3 years and never liked
their code language. For me (someone who is not a programmer), AB
was easier to learn and has more variables or expandability of use.
When you paste a code in AA, then you can set your parameters on
which you which to screen/scan (under the "apply to" and "range").
You can filter out certain watchlists, markets that you dont want to
screen/scan and you can choose how far back you want to scan.
Once you get results from a screen/scan, then right click it and you
have options (save to watchlist, export to excel, etc)
Hope that helps some...Good Trading!!!
