TA -
Debugging from afar can be tough, and I'm having a little trouble following what the results were when you ran the AFL with the for loop that I replied with. You said -
"If I scan only on the current symbol, It would only add that on symbol (although the trace statement shows all symbols were added)."
SO, let's take it one step at a time. When you run the following program with some additional trace as a Scan on the Current Symbol from the AA window (not from JScript) - what does it report in the trace on the first line, "Group = ", and the last line, "Watchlist after = " ?
TickerList = CategoryGetSymbols( categoryGroup, 253);
_TRACE( "Group = " + tickerlist );
for( i=0; (Ticker=StrExtract( TickerList, i)) != ""; i++)
{
if ( StrLeft( ticker, 1 ) == "~" AND
StrLeft( ticker, 3 ) != "~~~" )
{
CategoryAddSymbol(ticker, categoryWatchlist, 61);
_TRACE( "Added - " + ticker );
}
}
_TRACE( "Watchlist after = " + CategoryGetSymbols( categoryWatchlist, 61 ) );
Buy=0;
If this works, then you can layer the JScript on it and debug further.
