Hi
Dan,
Is there a
difference? My preference is to put it into all of my exploration
code.
This is the
beginning part (snippet) of most of my
explorations:
//
-------- Parameter Conditions and Variables for Exploration
WLF
= ParamToggle
( "Add Results
to a Watchlist?",
"No|Yes")
;
// WLF –
flag to select whether to add results to watchlist or
not
WLN
= Param("Set
Watchlist Number",
2,
2,
60,1);
// WLN -
sets the watchlist number, but reserves the first 2 and last 4
watchlists
(I am using
line returns to force formatting in this email)
What I would
like to implement is the clearing of the watchlist should I set my WLF to true
or Yes. If I am to copy the results of this scan to my watchlist then I am
going to want to clear it first. The WLF will be true and the WLN will
have the watchlist # that I am going to use with this exploration. In
the future I am most likely going to hard code the watchlist # for each
exploration. This will make it easier to run batch processing via Batman
or scripts (way beyond my skill level at the moment
though).

Jeff,
Are you going to run
this in a scan or exploration?

Dan.

thanks for all the info to get it work.
here is the summary for reference.
1. To clear watchlists:
function ClearWatchList(_watchListNumber)
{
_toClear =
GetCategorySymbols(categoryWatchlist,
_watchListNumber);
for(i = 0; (symC = StrExtract(_toClear,
i) ) != ""; i++) {
CategoryRemoveSymbol(symC, categoryWatchlist,
_watchListNumber);
}
}
ClearWatchList(0);
ClearWatchList(1);
ClearWatchList(2);
ClearWatchList(3);
2. To add scanned out stocks to
watchlists:
r2 = ConditionA
and ConditionB;
if (LastValue(r2) == 1) {
CategoryAddSymbol("", categoryWatchlist,
1);
}
Buy = 0;
Thanks again!

Here's
another example. When you go to see if you've been successful be sure to
select refresh all
// clear
Watchlists used to store composite symbols of QP Sector
Runs
WL

WL = Param("WL No.",3,1,63,1);
ClearList =
GetCategorySymbols(categoryWatchlist, WL);
for( i = 0; ( symC = StrExtract(ClearList, i) )
!= ""; i++ )
{
CategoryRemoveSymbol( symC, categoryWatchlist, WL );
}
Buy = Sell =0;

could you give an example? I played with my afl but
could not figure out how to get the scanned
out symbols.
if my buy signal is like below, how to add the scanned
out 'buy' symbols to watch list?
i tried: CategoryAddSymbol(Name(), categoryWatchlist,
10); but got all db symbols added.
i also tried: valuewhen(buy, name()), but got syntax
error.
could you shed some lite on
this?

There's a
function called categoryaddsymbol...can be used to add your selected ticker to
a watchlist to
build
watchlists. You can also clear your watchlist programmatically.

is it possible to add
scan results to wathlist with AFL programmatically? I have to do "add all
results to watch list" all the time at this
point.
