Lets see ...
1. Place all to select from in watchlist.
2. Use filter and select this watchlist.
3. Use SetOption to set MaxOpenPositions to 3 and not just worstrankheld. So,
will pick 3 top only.
4. Decide when you want to rotate as yours is set so can happen any market day
which might be what you want.
5. Count just set PositionSize = -100 / GetOption("MaxOpenPositions") or take
a look at Boiler Plate afl from AmiBrokeru.com free downloads.
6. Not sure what you are doing with PositionScore as it appears to be kind of a
True or False condition with your AND. The less than sign is a problem as
well. Maybe you are looking for ...
PositionScore = IIf( j>MA(j,10), C/Ref(C,-6), 0);
