Flip through a list of symbols using a single chart format

Noob here. I want to import a list of symbols and then easily flip through the chart for each symbol (preferably with a simple click of a button, maybe an arrow button or something like that). This is basically to review what's going on in the market in a relatively efficient manner.

The chart should be some template I have saved somewhere.

I'm sure this is quite simple, but I can't figure it out.

You don't need to do ANYTHING. That is how AmiBroker operates by default:

  1. Download and Import data (for example using AmiQuote)
  2. Use Symbol List (built-in) and just arrow keys :up_arrow: :down_arrow: on your keyboard to move to previous / next symbol in the list.

If you want multiple layouts you can save them as instructed in the Users Guide Working with chart sheets and window layouts

Amibroker is the best for chart reading.

F4 key will bring you to Symbol Finder menu. If you for some reason click on the chart and the up and down arrow keys no longer work. Just press F4 and it will bring you back Symbol Finder and the up and down arrow keys will work again.

F3 key will bring you to alternate finder menu. This menu is for searching full name of a stock.

Ok thanks. How do I switch between watch lists? For example, I'd like to flip through all the symbols on List1; then switch to another list and flip through those other symbols.

It appears that watchlists are useful for scanning, backtests, etc; but can't be used to flip through charts. Is that true?

It is simple: just use SYMBOL LIST. It allows to easily browse using arrows within ANY category. Select category and press :up_arrow: and :down_arrow:

It is all described in the Users' Guide:
