[amibroker] Trouble trying to compare industry and market ...

["louisprefontaine" <rockprog80@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I am a newbie with Amibroker as well as on this board, but I have some
talent for learning and am trying to learn to write code really hard.
 So far, I had no problem that did not have a solution.

But now this is something that I don't understand.  I want to compare
a market indicator (such as the Dow Jones)  and a sector indicator
(such as the mining index).

Here is the code I wrote so far (I know it's messy; I'm still learning)


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ticker = GetBaseIndex(); // plot industry, need to create composite
sectors

TickerName = IndustryID(1);

TickerClose = Foreign( Ticker, "close" );


for( i = 0; ( symbol = StrExtract( Ticker, i ) ) != ""; i++ )
{
  fc = Foreign( ticker, "C" );
}

PlotGrid( 0, colorYellow );


_N( Title = "{{NAME}} - Relative Performance [%]: {{VALUES}}" );

     ticker= ( 100 * ( fc - Ref( fc, -10 ))/Ref (fc,-10)) ;
Current= ( 100 * ( C - Ref (Close, -10) ) / Ref (Close, -10)) ;


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Basically, all I want to do is to add the Industry index along with
the Market index which is what is displayed right now.  Anybody would
know how to do this?  I tried to experiment with getbaseindex  and
industry()  and things like that but I got no way to add both
marketid(0) and industryid (0)  in the same piece of code.

Thanks!!
