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

Maybe my last message was not clear, so I will try to explain better.

I know how to use the getbaseindex()  to get the base index (DJ, or
comp, etc.) for each of the stocks, and to apply a formula on that
index.  But what I really want to do is to get BOTH the base index for
the stock AND the industry or sector index, as to compare the
industry/sector index with the base index and with the stock.   I am
looking for 3 informations there to compare one to each other.

If anyone could help me with this issue, maybe by telling me how I
could write such code to get both index and industry or sector, I
would greatly appreciate.

I tried to search through all the information in the group in the last
years, but found no answer to my question.

Thank you very much!

Louis
