Hello Everyone,
I am exploring an idea that has caught my attention recently. I use AmiBroker to do my preliminary stock analysis and occasionally get some good leads. I might get an initial list of 100-200 stocks which I could then narrow down with further analysis. What I would like to do is assign a sector name to those initial stocks I have pulled up so that I can focus even further, perhaps based on knowing what sectors are currently doing well.

So, as everyone knows, in the U.S. markets there are about 12 major sectors. I would love to assign the correct sector name to each of those tickers I pull up. Unfortunately this is not easily accomplished in AmiBroker, from what I have been able to determine. Can someone tell me if this is possible? Is there perhaps some flexible and configurable freeware (or shareware) program that could allow me to create a 'sector' column?
Well, thanks to anyone in advance for your help.
