Hi, Mark. Welcome to the Amibroker users group.
You need to use Stephane Carrasset's RemBuy.dll, which you can download
from the files section of the Yahoo AB group site. If Stephane is reading this,
jump in and correct me if I'm wrong, Stephane. Here is an example code:
BuyCond = <your buy condition>;Buy = ref(buy,-1); //enter at open
the next day after buy condition is trueEP = Open; //entry price is the
opening priceProfit = EP + 2*ATR(20);//your profit targetStopLoss=
valuewhen(Buy,Open - n*ATR(20));//set n at anything you want or optimize
itTrailStop = H-m*ATR(15);//a trailing stop where m can be anything you
wantBars = -1;//any other setting here allows another stop to exit ata set
no. of barsscRemBuyTrail(Buy, Close, EP, StopLoss, Profit, TrailStop,
Bars);//the call of the dllBuy=Buy;Sell=Sell;//ensures the buy and sell
are arraysBuyPrice = EP;SellPrice = Open;Short = 0;Cover =
0;EP = ValueWhen(Buy, EP);//for plotting purposesIStop = valuewhen(Buy,
stoploss);//for plotting purposesTStop = HighestSince(Buy, Trailstop);//for
plotting purposes
The above code gives an example of a profit target, a stop loss, and a
trailing stop all in one. Hope this helps.

Subject: [amibroker] Referencing buy
attributes to sell
Hi All from a new AmiBroker user. I just love it so far,
I've made moreprogress in backtesting in the last week in Ami than in
MetaStock in thelast few months.Anyway, a question.What I
want to do is base sell conditions based on conditions at time ofbuying. I
might want to use a profit target based exit which depends on aprice
calculated on the day the buy condition is generated. An example wouldbe I
want to sell when the equity reaches the value of CLOSE + 2 * ATR(20)on
the day the buy signal is generated. Any ideas how I can achieve this
inAFL?I have more similar questions, but let's cover one at a
time :)Cheers,MarkPost
