Dale,
Yes it is possible to perform optimization using for loop
inside exploration code:
Sample code follows, it runs optimization inside for loop
and reports only THE BEST
result. It should be run usign "EXPLORE". The code in fact
runs several
backtests inside 'for' loop and notes the best result and
best parameter range.
bestequity = 0;bestrange
= 0;<FONT face="Courier New"

// optimization loop
for( range = <FONT
color=#ff00ff>12; range < 40; range ++
){
Buy = Cross(
Close, EMA( Close, range )
);
Sell = Cross( <FONT

In
trying to get my thinking together on this: is it now possible to simulate
an optimization when running an Exploration by using the FOR
construct? What I'm trying to do is get some extra columns that
contain calculated data during an Optimization. SInce you can't use the
Addcolumn in the Optimizer I've been wondering how I might go about this
using the FOR (or even the While). If you have a few moments could you
illustrate how this might be done (if possible) using a simple
example?

This release brings huge improvement to AFL:
for and while loops
and if-else flow control statements.
Native AFL loops run 2..3 times faster than JScript
(according to my
preliminary tests on arrays with 1000-5000
bars)
For more details and example code please read the
following "READ ME" text.
NOTE: from now on all beta releases will be available
to registered
users only (in member area).
Best regards,Tomasz

AGAIN: THIS IS AN EARLY BETA VERSION OF THE SOFTWARE. EXPECT
BUGS !!!
Backup your data files and entire AmiBroker
folder first!
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT: This archive is update-only. You have to install
full version 4.30 first.
Just run the installer and follow the instructions.
Then run AmiBroker. You should see "AmiBroker 4.31.0 beta" written in
the About box.
CHANGES FOR
VERSION 4.31.0 (as compared to 4.30.0)
Workspace window uses "icon font" set in the Windows settings
instead of hard coded Tahoma 8
for better readability and ClearType(tm) compatibility on WinXP,
all dialog windows use now 'MS Shell Dlg' face name that maps to
standard MS Sans Serif on Win 9x/Me/NT and Tahoma on Win 2K and XP.
rewritten AFL parser, now formula is parsed and coverted to syntax
tree and then interpreted. This would allow further improvements
including compilation. This allowed also to add loops/if-else
statements.
implemented IF/ELSE statement, WHILE and FOR loops:The same
basic 'for' loop in AFL is 2..3 times faster than in JScriptSyntax
follows C++/JScript style:
while( conditional_expression ) statement;
for( initializer_part; conditional_expression; iterator_part )
statement;
if( conditional_expression ) statement;
if( conditional_expression )
statement;elsestatement;
implemented compound statements: these are blocks of statements
enclosedin opening and closing curly brace
{statement1;statement2;...statementN;}
compound statement can appear anywhere when simple statement
can.
For example:
i = 10;while( i < 20 ){Plot( MA( Close, i ),
"MA" + WriteVal( i, 0 ), colorBlack + i );i = i +
1;}
implemented C-style postfix and prefix increment/decrement
operators
i = 10;WriteIf( i++ );WriteIf( ++i );WriteIf( i
);
implemented array element access (subscript) operator []:
WriteVal( Close[ 0 ] ); // prints the first bar of close
array
/* a sample low-level implementation of exponential moving
average in AFL */
myema[ 0 ] = Close[ 0 ];
for( i = 1; i < BarCount; i++ ){myema[ i ] = 0.1 *
Close[ i ] + 0.9 * myema[ i - 1 ];}
added built-in constant 'BarCount' that returns number of bars
available in arrays (the number of elements of array)When QuickAFL
is turned on it may be less than true number of bars because QuickAFL
feature attempts to use only visible bars (and few before). You can
control how many bars the formula requires using SetBarsRequired()
function
implemented infinite-loop protection. Nice if you forgot to
increment counter variable in 'for' loop :-)
tab key now works without need to press ALT/CTRL in AFL editors
added C-like synonyms for logical ADD/OR/NOT: &&, ||, !
/* a sample low-level implementation of Profit-target
stop in AFL: */
Buy = Cross( MACD(), Signal() );
priceatbuy=0;
for( i = 0; i < BarCount; i++
){ if( priceatbuy == 0 &&
Buy[ i ] ) priceatbuy = BuyPrice[ i
];
if( priceatbuy > 0
&& SellPrice[ i ] > 1.1 * priceatbuy
) { Sell[
i ] = 1; SellPrice[ i ] =
1.1 *
priceatbuy; priceatbuy =
0; } else Sell[
i ] = 0;}
/* sample EMA rainbow */
Plot( Close, "Price", colorBlack, styleCandle );for(
Range = 15; Range < 100; Range++ ) Plot( EMA(
Close, Range ), "MA"+WriteVal(Range,0), colorRose + Range % 8,
styleNoLabel );
