A couple of things to consider: 1. Are you using trade delays in your AA settings? 2. If using BarsSince, you should probably get rid of redundancies first. 3. Avoid ExRem except for charting. Use ExRemSpan in this case (see doc explicitly describing how to hold for 'x' days after buy). http://www.amibroker.com/guide/afl/afl_view.php?id=50
