The Highest( array ) function returns a VALUE of highest value in the array.
If you want to detect THE DAY when highest value was reached just use the followin formula
highestday = close == highest( close );
Please note that this one will give "1" (or true) for EVERY NEW high. For single signal use:
highestalltime = close == lastvalue( highest( close ) );

Subject: [amibroker] afl formula
Hi all i was trying to get a formula that would signal a stock trading atits all time hi ..
highest(close)
but i seem to get a signal for every day
if i define the range to 0 periods i get todays highest
if i define the range to 60 periods then i get a buy signal for 60 periods ?
Calculates the highest value in the ARRAY since the first day loaded in the chart
hmm what am i doing wrong ?
HIGHEST SYNTAX highest( ARRAY )
RETURNS NUMBER
FUNCTION Calculates the highest value in the ARRAY since the firstday loaded in the chart.
EXAMPLE The formula highest( rsi(14) ) returns the highest RelativeStrength Index value; highest ( close ) returns the highest closing price.
