you could always use the straightforward way
cntr = cum(sell);

Alex,
This works exactly the same way in AFL:
Cntr = 0;
*for*(i=0; i<*BarCount*; i++) {
*if* (*Sell*[i])
Cntr = Cntr + 1;
}

*Subject:* [amibroker] Keeping a counter
How do you do this in AFL?
I want to keep a counter variable that adds 1 everytime a Sell=1. In
VisualBasic it would be:
cntr = 0
for i = 0 to barcount
if Sell[i] = 1 then cntr = cntr + 1
next i
cntr then becomes the number of trades that have closed. For example,
if there were two trades in the backtest, cntr would be 2.
Thanks - Alex
