[amibroker] Help Required concerning Ratios in Amibroker

["clickoo_ka" <clickoo_ka@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello again,

I posted this question sometime ago and I had some help regarding 
the creation of ratios in Amibroker. What I need to do is to create 
a simple ratio between two stocks and to be able to apply various 
indicators on this "new" security. For example, I need to create a 
ratio between ORCL and MSFT (ORCL/MSFT). I coded it as follows:

OM=Open/Foreign("MSFT","Close");
HM=High/Foreign("MSFT","Close");
LM=Low/Foreign("MSFT","Close");
CM=Close/Foreign("MSFT","Close");
PlotOHLC(OM,HM,LM,CM,"SRatio",colorRed, styleCandle);

I apply this forula to the ORCL chart and it creates the ratio in a 
new panel. So far, so good! That's exactly what I want. But with 
this, I cannot apply indicators on this ratio. And that's what I 
need to do!

So I did as follows:

OM=Open/Foreign("MSFT","Close");
HM=High/Foreign("MSFT","Close");
LM=Low/Foreign("MSFT","Close");
CM=Close/Foreign("MSFT","Close");
PlotOHLC(OM,HM,LM,CM,"SRatio",colorRed, styleCandle);
AddToComposite(CM,"~Satio","C",1+2+8+16);
AddToComposite(HM,"~Satio","H",1+2+8+16);
AddToComposite(LM,"~Satio","L",1+2+8+16);
AddToComposite(OM,"~Satio","O",1+2+8+16);

Now as I understand this (please feel free to correct me as I am a 
newbie in Amibroker), the first five lines create the new security 
and plots it. The last four lines basically creates a new composite 
(~Satio) which I can find in the symbol bar and apply it to new 
templates.

However, it seems to work fine for the first security that I apply 
on; but for the second security it doesn't refresh. I need to 
refresh this new composite with each new stock that I open; but that 
doesn't seem to be the case. I open the first stock "ORCL"; then 
apply this new formula which creates and displays the ratio in a new 
pane; then in the symbol field I put in the new composite (~Satio) 
which then replaces ORCL with this nex composite. Now I change the 
stock to "CSCO" and now ~Satio doesn't update!!

Can anybody help me in this regard??? All I need to do is to create 
a ratio between two stocks; plot it and then apply indicators on 
this composite.

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Thanks again in advance for your help.

Regards,
S.
