Sure will do that. Best regards, Tomasz Janeczko amibroker.com ----- Original Message ----- From: Herman To: [email protected] ; AmiBroker Support Sent: Friday, November 06, 2009 11:24 PM Subject: Re: [amibroker] How to use AUX1 and AUX2?
OK, i think i know why the confusion: AUX1 and AUX2 are not formatted like a
reserved word (like Close, Sell, etc) in the editor. They look like
non-reserved words. However the syntax check does not flag them down as
uninitialized variables so the are reserved variable names.
Is it possible to format/color them like other reserved keywords?
Many thanks,
herman

They work the same as OHLCV arrays.
You can write to them, but what you write is NOT stored to database.
These are built-in price arrays and in order to protect from modifying
quotes by mistake
you are writing to temporary runtime copies of OHLCVA1A2 arrays.
In order to actually write to database you need to use AddToComposite or
COM or ASCII importer.

ahh, so they can't be assigned values, or be read, like we do OHLCVI
fields? Thus, i gather, these fields cannot be used in a loop?
AUX1[b] = 999;
MyData = AUX[b]
I have a host of other uses, like storing real trade information so that
these can easily be accessed and plotted - with having to compare DT all the
time.
Thanks for the reply,

Hello,
Aux1 and Aux2 fields are intended to be used as:
1. Storage for extra quotation data such as bid/ask figures
2. Storage for other data such as trading volume expressed in dollars,
volume-weigted average price, etc
3. Extra fields for AddToComposite/Foreign (use "1" field ID for aux1 and "2"
for aux2 in Foreign/AddToComposite calls)
You can store values to those fields either using ASCII importer or
using OLE or using AddToComposite
Example:
AddToComposite( array, Name(), "1") ; // store array to aux1

any AUX1 and AUX2 users out there?
As is often the case some very useful new features sit on the shelf for
a long time before people start using them, simply because they are not
documented for the simple user. Tomasz, please give a sales pitch as
what we can do with the new array expansion - its a waste to let it go
to waste :-)

I can't find any examples on how to use the two new AUX1 and AUX2
fields. Can anyone give an example?
When working with the current ticker, how do i assign a value to one of
these fields? How do i read it back?
Thanks,
herma
