Hello, In response to
Question 1: What you have used is just a Buy / Sell system. To plot, you have to Plot using the Plot syntax Example: Plot(MA(C,30),"30-MA", colorblue, styleline); Add the above syntax to your formula AFL and on the Menu Bar, click on Tools - > Apply Indicator Cheers Prashanth ----- Original Message ----- From: Walter Lepore To: [email protected] Sent: Friday, November 23, 2007 10:37 PM Subject: [amibroker] Chart and Report question please Hi Members I hope everyone who celebrates Thanksgiving had a peaceful day. I thought I'd better re-post my question as it was getting lost in antiquity. Please help. Question 1 please After running a back test on a simple 30 day SMA crossover system, I still cannot see the 30 SMA line on the chart that my basic formula is coded for. Below is the code exactly as it appears in the AFL wizard. Buy = Close > MA( Close , 30 ); Sell = Close < MA( Close , 30 ); Short = 0; Cover = 0; I opened up the Automatic Analysis window and executed the back test successfully but my chart seems to be showing 6 moving average lines none of which are in my formula. It shows 6 sma lines none of which are a 30 day SMA line. How can I get my chart to show ONLY what is in my formula (Ex: Where is the 30 day SMA line)? Also, (the reverse) how can I identify what indicators are currently showing on my chart? Question 2 please Also, in the AA window when I click "report", a detailed report appears with the columns called "All Trades, Long Trades and Short Trades. Where is the column called "Buy and Hold"? I'd like to compare the results of my system back test to a simple "Buy and Hold" strategy. Wealth-Lab has this column in their report. I like the "buy and hold" column because at this point in my learning curve, I'm trying to compare/beat the return of a simple "Buy and Hold" strategy. Thank you all for your time and patience Peace on Earth. Walter Lepore USA NJ
