Re: [amibroker] Buy/Sell Signals in Scan V3.60a

Hi David,

Thanks for pointing out you can open same AFL code in Guru as in Scan etc. -
for some reason I thought they were held with different file extensions etc.
(Metastock syndrome!?)

I still think it would be logical and convenient to have the facility via
Scan where you are already looking at list of signals on each stock. I
realised how the show single/all trades feature worked it's just that I
don't want to be clicking every time I scroll to next stock.

Regards
John
