I think this may work. If not, you may try to use VarSet/VarGet.

Filter = 0;
for(i = 1; i < 6; i++)
{
LoopROC = ROC(C, i);

Filter = Filter OR LoopROC > 10;
AddColumn(LoopROC,"Loop" + WriteVal( (i), 1.0));
}

Subject: [amibroker] Looping for dummies

The following feeble attempt at learning how to use loops to automate
some of my explorations isn't working. I'm obviously missing a very
fundamental concept (probably more than a few fundamental concepts).

What I am attempting to do with this test exploration is calculate a
1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 period ROC for each stock and return a list of all
those stocks that pass the filter requirement for ANY of the 1-5
passes (if any of the 1-5 period ROC values is > 10). What is being
returned is a line for each stock with all 5 LoopROC values, but only
for those stocks that pass the filter for the last value of i ---- 5
in this case. (I thought I had hit the jackpot when I saw that I
actually had results that matched the test code on the first run!).

Believe it or not, this will be a major breakthrough for me if i can
just understand how to do this. TIA for any help with an explanation.

{
LoopROC = ROC(C, i);

Filter = LoopROC > 10;
AddColumn(LoopROC,"Loop" + WriteVal( (i), 1.0));
}

// the following lines are to verify the values of LoopROC

ROC1 = ROC(C, 1);
ROC2 = ROC(C, 2);
ROC3 = ROC(C, 3);
ROC4 = ROC(C, 4);
ROC5 = ROC(C, 5);

AddColumn(ROC1, "1");
AddColumn(ROC2, "2");
AddColumn(ROC3, "3");
AddColumn(ROC4, "4");
AddColumn(ROC5, "5");
