Hi Bob,

as you might notice, yesterday Tomasz pointed out that - in 
backtesting - there's no risk (and there never was) to have multiple 
buy signals every time BUY condition is TRUE, 
as it is explained in this image:

Looking at the help for EXREM here

http://www.amibroker.com/guide/afl/afl_view.php?id=49

I read that EXREM's function is to "remove excessive signals" and the 
first example of use of this function is:

Buy = exrem(Buy, sell);

which, if I well undestand, sets array BUY to ZERO until array SELL 
is equal to 1 (TRUE).
In other words, it should prevent having two consecutive BUY signals 
without a SELL between them.

So I simply asked: why the User Guide gives me an example of using 
EXREM to avoid two consecutive BUY signals if there's no risk to 
trigger them?

If this seems to be a dumb question for most people here, I apologize.
I normally ask dumb questions, it is one of the ways that made me   
able to survive for more than 20 years in the markets.

Regards,

Angelo.
