Hi N,
I had the same problem. you can see my post on it.
At indicator level it works (plot the buy for example) but not in
backtesting.
What active symbol are you using?I think if you have to disable price
bound checking or it will compare the price to the current symbol,
which is what I do, but I still get the wrong entry price or signal
generation even if I Use buyprice=foreign("..") and buy=
Logic(foreign" ..")) etcLet me know .. I need to solve the same problem Ly --- In [email protected], jim fenster <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I am trying to make trading decisions based on a > second symbol and its not working at all.
