Hello,
Detecing "last" symbol is BAD idea.
There is NO SINGLE LAST symbol in multiple threading environment !
In multiple threading execution multiple threads will execute in parallel and
multiple symbols will be "LAST" (execute as last in parallel threads).
Detecting FIRST is safe because AmiBroker when it sees status("stocknum")==0 anywhere in the code
it runs VERY FIRST SYMBOL with ONE and ONLY ONE thread.
No other threads are started until this very first finishes.
If you think that you will use "last symbol" and do some "end processing" then this idea is BAD.
The "last symbol" in the list is not necessarily the last one that would be executed as multiple threads
run parallel and their runtime is not equal. The "last symbol" may actually finish sooner than the rest.
Best regards,

The condition (status("stocknum") == 0) can be used to detect when a scan or exploration is processing the first symbol. Is there any easy way to detect when a scan is processing the last symbol of the scan?
Thanks
