Hi,
If by industry group you mean the MGxxx industry index, this requires
one-time setup:
Go to Symbols > Categories > Industries, and under "Base Index for Relative
Strength", type in the MGxxx number for each industry in the list ( or pull
it off the drop-down list ).
Once this is done, you can:
1. Get the industry index via GetBaseIndex()
2. Get the sector index via StrLeft( GetBaseIndex(), 4) + "0"
Each ticker can only have one base indaex - AB's order of precedence is
Group > Industry > Market, so if you want to use Industry, make sure Base
Index on the Categories > Groups tab is blank.
