You'll have to edit this a bit, but this script basically does what you want:
function DeleteStockList (ListToUse, FilterValue)
{
StockList = GetCategorySymbols(categoryWatchlist, ListToUse);
for( j=0; (CurrentTicker=StrExtract(StockList, j)) != ""; j++)
{
StockToSell = StrExtract(Stocklist, TickerIndex[j]);
if (Filtervalue ==1)
{
Deletestock(CurrentTicker);
CategoryRemoveSymbol(StockToSell , categoryWatchlist, Listtouse);
}
if (Filtervalue ==2) //Remove the entire watchlist
{
if (SelectedValue(GetTClose(StocktoSell)) >
SelectedValue(GetYClose(StocktoSell)) * 1.1)
{
Deletestock(CurrentTicker);
CategoryRemoveSymbol(StockToSell , categoryWatchlist, Listtouse);
}
}
} //for loop
}//function deletestocklist
//Delete a single stock from the symbol list
function Deletestock(TickerToDelete)
{
AB = CreateObject("Broker.Application");
st = AB.Stocks;
st.Remove(TickerToDelete);
}

Subject: [amibroker] Script to Automatically delete Tickers
Hello,
I co-moderate a group where we provide data for Indian Markets. Yesterday,
due to using of wrong file, I generated data with wrong ticker names (when
compared to normal ticker names).
Since, it would have been used by quite some people, before the problem was
noticed, I was hoping that I could provide the persons concerned with a scrip
which can Automatically delete Tickers I speficy in the said Script file. While
this can be done Manually, since Number of tickers are around 250, it would be
easier to Automate the same compared to Manual deletion.
If someone can provide me with such a script, It shall be really helpfull.
Thanks
Prashanth
