Hello Ara and Barry, Thank you for your contribution but, please take into account my vast two week experience in using AmiBroker and explain where do I substitute my entry condition? In Barry's code "ai" array is not initialized and gives an error. I assume that, this is not a complete code. Can you please give me a simple working example which I can use to understand the logic of the AFL code?
Is there an example somewhere in the AFL library which shows using valuwhen to identify specific bar break out?
