Close, but not quite right I think.
Your closing RestorePriceArrays(True) is not in balance with your
opening SetForeign("^GSPC").
According to the documentation, if you did not pass True as the 3rd
argument to SetForeign, then you should not be passing True to
RestorePriceArrays().
Also, your code sample doesn't show it, but I'm assuming that you
rightly intend to use var1 and var2 in your Buy assignment or
elsewhere in your code.
