Hi Members Please bear with me. I am trying to write a simply Buy and Hold system using only one stock (HPQ-Hewlitt Packard). I'm using End of Day data and programming using the AFL Wizard . I've been at it for about two hours but can't generate the results of a simple buy & Hold.
Obviously I'm doing something wrong. There are a total of 11,561 Daily bars in the data I downloaded from Yahoo. I've built several different formulas and none of them result in a simple Buy and Hold when I backtest and run a report. Can someone please tell me what the code is for a simple buy and hold please? I assume there will only be an "Enter Long" but NO "Exit Long" since I'm still holding. Correct? Thank you very much Walter
