If you 
don't use the OI field then you can use this to store custom information. To my 
best recollection AmiBroker numbers have an upper limit of 2^32, this means you 
can encode 32 binary True/False bits for each bar. You can also store Barcount 
single numbers in the OI array using subscripts, like OI[0]=value1, OI[1] 
=Value2, etc.

You 
can further expand this idea by using composites, I have 100s of composites 
created something like so:
<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff

<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff 
size=2>AddToComposite(MyCustomArray, "~"+Name(),"O"); 
<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff 
size=2> 
This 
would create composites named ~AAPL, ~ADBE, ~ALTR, etc. that can be retrieved 
using Foreign("~"+Name(),"O"); whenever you want to access the current stock. Of 
course you can also use the H,L,C,V,OI fields.

In AB 
there are virtually unlimited ways to "attach" info to specific 
stocks!

  adding custom info to tickerHi,I want to add 
  an is-it-optionable ( true/false ) attribute to most of 
  mytickers.Is there an easy way?I notice that, in the 
  Symbol|Information dialog, there is a Code field inthe upper right; maybe 
  this is an appropriate place, although it is not atrue/false 
  field.thanks-johnSend BUG REPORTS
