[amibroker] How to move symbols from 1 market to another.

Hi,

I happy to have found AB but all the symbols for the market I am
trading is lumped together under 1 market and I want to split stocks
and warrants into separate market categories.  

How do I move symbols from 1 market to another.
Initially all symbols were grouped under the first market category and
I have created another in market 3.
Market 0 = stocks (the first one)
Market 3 = warrants.
All warrants have symbols ending in "W" and the symbols have 4
characters. 

Here is what I have done and try to run it in the backtester but it
did not result in moving the symbols. See below.

I hope some can throw some light.  

Maybe if someone can let me know where I can learn to debug an AFL
program I will be happy too.

Thanks.



// start of program.....

   list = CategoryGetSymbols( categoryMarket, 0 ); 

   for( i = 0; ( sym = StrExtract( list, i ) ) != ""; i++ ) 
   { 
      if ((StrLen(sym)> 3) && (StrRight(sym,1)=="W"))
      	CategoryAddSymbol( sym, categoryMarket, 3 ); 
      	 
      
   } 

// The simple system just to get backtest to run and execute the above
code.
// MA parameters could be optimized too...
p1 = 10;
p2 = 22;
// simple MA crossover
Short=Cross( MA(C,p1) , MA(C,p2) );
Buy=Cross( MA(C,p2) , MA(C,p1) );
// always in the market 
Sell=Short; 
Cover=Buy;
