Re: [amibroker] Referencing an indicator from a scan

["Tomasz Janeczko" <groups@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

Metastock is seriously limited when it comes to programming and
it features Fml is actually workaround to serious MS limitation - lack of user defined functions.

AmiBroker's AFL is superior in this area as it provides true user-defined functions
(with parameters). 
http://www.amibroker.com/guide/a_userfunctions.html

Once defined, user functions behave as any built-in function (you just call it by name
and can provide parameters without resorting to ugly MS Fml() )

Such functions can be put in separate file (say "Include\MyFunctions.afl") that you can include anywhere
you need.
To include external files using #include directive:
http://www.amibroker.com/guide/afl/afl_view.php?name=%23include

#include <myFunctions.afl>

Best regards,
Tomasz Janeczko
