Re: [amibroker] Simple Profit Calculation?

[Graham]

After the first bar of the backtest period, the first buy signal enters the trade and then the first sell signal after that entry is taken in the backtest-- CheersGrahamAB-Write >< Professional AFL Writing Service

Hi Guys,I'm new to Amibroker and this group but I'm a decent JAVA programmer.I've figured out how to create buy and sell Explorations but I'mpuzzled how you calculate a backtest profit.  Say  "Buy = Cross( MACD(), 0);"
Gives you something like AAPL on 9/22/01  at a  H of $77 and  "Sell = Cross( 0, MACD());"Gives you something like AAPL on 9/22/06  at a  H of $47.How would Amibroker know that these were the same position in your
backtesting or do you need to create your own variable?Thanks.ChrisPlease note that this group is for discussion between users only.To get support from AmiBroker please send an e-mail directly to
