Here's a clip I use in an indicator chart. JOE // Dev the buy and hold equity for Long Fund. SetForeign(fund2ticker); Buy = 1; Sell = 0; bhldeq = Equity( 1, 3, startdatenum , enddatenum ); bhldeq = bhldeq/1000; RestorePriceArrays(); ----- Original Message ----- From: Tomasz Janeczko To: [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, July 22, 2008 8:16 AM Subject: Re: [amibroker] Benchmarking Hello, Two steps: 1. Create a benchmark (index) symbol using AddToComposite. Check "Introduction to ATC" doc for instructions. 2. Run benchmark buy and hold backtest using: Buy = Status("firstbarintest"); Sell = Status("lastbarintest"); Best regards, Tomasz Janeczko amibroker.com ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, July 22, 2008 1:26 PM Subject: [amibroker] Benchmarking Dear All, I am trying to test an active asset allocation strategy versus a passive benchmark. This benchmark would be static and include various asset classes (e.g. 40% equities, 40% bonds, 10 % commodities, etc.). Is it possbile to create such a benchmark in Amibroker? I saw in the archives a discussion back in 2006, where Tomasz was thinking about implementing something down these lines. Has such a function been added meanwhile? Or is there a work around to this? Any input highly appreciated Best regards, André ************************ DISCLAIMER ************************ This message is intended only for use by the person to whom it is addressed.
