Lynn,
Yes, what that person is doing can be done in AmiBroker (and
as
answered by others, has in most cases already been done).
As a
learning exercise, read through the description of each
AmiBroker
function, listed alphabetically here:
http://www.amibroker.com/guide/afl/afl_index.php?m=1
or
by category here:
http://www.amibroker.com/guide/afl/afl_index.php?m=2
At
the end of each description is a list of library examples that use
that
particular function. Follow the links to read through the sample
usages.
Some of the examples are complex. Others are more
approachable. They will
all give you an idea of what's involved in
writing AFL code.
The
complete library can be found here:
