You can cheat, explicitly doing what you are not supposed to do, by writing code to use the OLE interface to add your symbol to the watchlist as it is being iterated through, then use the API to remove your symbol at the end of the exploration.
In my quick try, adding the symbol seemed to work e.g. assuming symbol AA and watchlist #2, add to watchlist on processing of first symbol.
EnableScript("jscript");
if ( Status( "stocknum" ) == 0 )
{
<%
AB = new ActiveXObject("Broker.Application");
Stocks = AB.Stocks;
Symbol = Stocks.Item("AA");
Symbol.WatchListBits |= 1 << 2;
%>
}
I used JScript because AFL did not seem to natively support the << operator used in the example found in the user guide
http://www.amibroker.com/guide/objects.html
Trying to remove it afterwards was not quite working in my quick test.
Seems like a lot of fuss. What about writing a script to drive the OLE interface to include the symbol in all the watchlists that you want before running your exploration. Then run your explorations. Then run a cleaning script to remove the symbol from the watchlists after you're done?
Moving the code I provided above to an "add to watchlist" script would probably do the job. Repeat the line Symbol.WatchListBits |= 1 << ??? for each watchlist you want it to appear in.
To remove from the watchlist try something along the lines of:
<%
AB = new ActiveXObject("Broker.Application");
Stocks = AB.Stocks;
Symbol = Stocks.Item("AA");
Symbol.WatchListBits &= ~(1 << 2);
%>
None of the above is tested. And I have not spent the time to verify its validity or even the wisdom of the approach. But if you're determined to go down this road, it might help.
