Dear Leo,
 
The answers are:
 
1. 
sell = barssince( buy ) == n;
 
2. to exit January 12, 2001:
 
sell = year() == 2001 AND month() == 1 AND day() == 
12
 
or 
 
sell = datenum() == 1010112;
 
The same technique can be applied to short/cover 
variables.
 
Best regards,Tomasz Janeczko

Subject: [amibroker] Backtesting

Hello,
 
I'll be new to AmiBroker when 3.8 comes out (I'm 
currently using -testing- 3.7) and have some
questions regarding exits.
 
1- how do you exit n-days after the buy 
?
2- how do you exit on a specific day 
?
 
Any help kindly appreciated.
Kind Regards
Leo
