Tomasz,

Thanks much for your extra commentary.

Re:

What I meant was that in these output lines:

Date : 1/9/2007
AA,3,-67.0314
AA,1,67.0314
...
AA,2,{EMPTY}
AA,4,{EMPTY}

in the last two lines shown, we see signal type 2 and 4 (sell and
cover), in addition to 1 and 3 (buy and short, in prior lines).

(This is per the Porfolio Backtester Interface Reference Guide
discussion of the Signal object:

type ( 0 - rank  (rotational systems only), 1 - buy, 2 - sell, 3 -
short, 4 - cover, 5 -  scale-in, 6 - scale-out ) )

I didn't understand why Signal objects with sell and cover properties
were being reported in the output at all, since Sell and Cover are set
to 0.

IOW, I wouldn't think Signal objects with sell and cover properties
would exist at all under the circumstances.

That's a fine point I'd like to get clear on, if possible.

Thanks again.
