Re: [amibroker] Re: Is it possible to print the industry ID along with the backtest results?

["Tomasz Janeczko" <amibroker@xxxxxx>]

Hello,

In this context IndustryID is a PROPERTY of stock object and has no parameters. So you should write
  txt = stk.IndustryID;

instead of:

  txt = stk.IndustryID(1) ;
