Thank you Mike..
I do have a couple of questions.Amibroker gives an example of scaling out of
trades and uses code such as the following snippet.
-------------------------------------------
priceatbuy=0;
highsincebuy = 0;
exit = 0;
for( i = 0; i < BarCount; i++ )
{
if( priceatbuy == 0 AND Buy[ i ] )
{
priceatbuy = BuyPrice[ i ];
}
if( priceatbuy > 0 )
{
-------------------------------------------
I have a better chance of running a 3 minute mile than coding something like
that.I noticed in the examples you sent me,the code was more digestable..Here
is a snippet of what you sent
------------------------------------------------------------------
"Buy = firstTrigger + (secondTrigger * sigScaleIn) + (thirdTrigger * sigScaleIn)
+ (fourthTrigger * sigScaleIn);
//SetPositionSize(IIf(firstTrigger, 100, IIf(secondTrigger, 200,
IIf(thirdTrigger, 300, 400))), spsShares);
SetPositionSize(IIf(firstTrigger, 1000, IIf(secondTrigger, 2000,
IIf(thirdTrigger, 3000, 4000))), spsValue);"
-----------------------------------------------------------------
What are the differences between the two approaches?
If I understand FLIP,EXREM,VALUEWHEN,SIGSCALEIN and other functions in your
code,does that serve as a workoaround for the code at the top of the page??Are
those functions intended for mere mortals such as myself??
Thanks for the help,
Allan
