AmiBroker: HSI Index?

[GreatPig]

I have an entry in AmiBroker called HSI which appears to be some sort of market index (values are in the 15,000 range), but I can't find it listed in the ASX indices section, where they all start with 'X'.

HSI sounds like it could be H?? Sector Index, but I can't find any reference to it.

Anyone know what it is?

Cheers,
GP


PS: Hmm... a Web search shows it could be Hang Seng Index, but how would I get that in AmiBroker from only importing ASX prices?

This is from Yahoo, I think it's the Hang Seng too, not sure what went wrong. Maybe a post in the Metastock FAQ may yield an answer.

Richkid,

Yeah, I guess it must be the Hang Seng.

No idea how I got that into AmiBroker.
