Howard,
I looked at CategoryGetName(CategoryWatchlist,n), but it requires that I know
the watchlist number before I can acceess the name ... so in this case it does
not work.
Mike,
I have not tested your code yet, but looks like it
will do what I want.
Thanks to both
Ara

Don't know if there is an easier way. But, you could always just use
the Com/JScript support to access the AmiBroker OLE object and query
its properties as
follows.
Mike
EnableScript("jscript");
<%
function
getAAWatchList() {
var ab = new
ActiveXObject("Broker.Application");
var aa = ab.Analysis;
return
aa.Filter(0, "watchlist");
}

Fast = MA(Close, 5);
Slow

PositionSize = -10;
Buy = Cross(Fast,
Slow);
Sell = Cross(Slow,
Fast);
SetBacktestMode(backtestRegular);
SetCustomBacktestProc("");
if
(Status("action") == actionPortfolio) {
script = GetScriptObject();
bo
=
GetBacktesterObject();
bo.Backtest();
bo.AddCustomMetric("Watchlist",
script.getAAWatchList());
}
