Tom,
Maybe I’m misunderstanding your
question, but why not use an AB Watch list and just add the TC index
symbols?
Below is a process that I figured out.
There may be a simpler and more elegant way of doing it, but I’m not sure
how.
FYI… If we can clean up this process
a bit, we might want to add it to our WikiWiki or maybe Tomasz can add it to
the documentation.
Regards,
Dan.
1) In Telechart, select a watchlist tab and then from the watchlist
drop down, select “System Watchlists à All indexes”.
2) This will display all of the TC Index symbols in a watchlist.
3) Select Databank à Export to Text.
4) Ensure that you are just exporting the symbol (in the “Export
Fields (in Order)” selection window.
5) Select “Single File” and a file name.
6) Click Export.
1) In AB, go to “Symbol à Categories à Watch lists”
2) Select and rename two target watch lists – one to hold all
indices; one to hold key indices. Mine are named “Key Indices
(6)” and “All indices (30)”. (I include the Watch list
number to the end to keep track of the number.)
3) Now go to Symbol à Watch list à Import.
4) Select the “All Indices” target watchlist.
5) Navigate to the folder where you saved the TC index symbols and
select the file.
6) Click “Open”
7) In the AB Workspace window, check “Symbols à Watch lists à All Indices (30)”
(or whatever you name your watchlist). You should see it filled with all
of the TC Index symbols.
8) Note the symbols that you want to include in the target “Key
Indices (6)” watchlist.
9) Now go to “Symbol à Organize Assignments”
10) Click the “Watch lists” radio button.
11) On the left select “All Indices (30)” as your source
watchlist. On the right, select the target “Key Indices (6)”
watchlist.
12) On the left, select the index symbols that you want to include in
your Key Indexes folder and click the “>” button. This
moves them to the right.
13) Click “Close”
14) In the AB Workspace window, check “Symbols à Watch lists à Key Indices (6)”.
You should now see a list of your key indices.
Alternatively,
you could skip steps 8-15 and select each symbol in the “All Indices (30)”
watchlist, right-click, select “Watchlist à Add selected symbol…”.
This is a bit simpler, but you only do it one symbol at a time.
