Thank you,
That was helpful.
This is what I finally made up:
BuySig = ...my buying rule...
Buy = Hold(BuySig,5) AND BuyPrice > ValueWhen(Buysig, H, 1);
BuyPrice = (ValueWhen(Buysig, H, 1)) + 0.01;
Buy = ExRemSpan(Buy, 4 );
Works fine.
(I.e. does what I wanted in 4.07beta. Strangely in 4.00 - working
from the same database - I found 1 arrow 1 bar too late.)
BTW if there's another way of doing this I'd be interested to learn.
I also wonder if it is possible to have two buy arrows in two shades
of green, one for the "BuySig" signal and one for the actual
confirmed "Buy". Not that I desperately need it, just out of
curiosity.
