Janeczko'Subject: [amibroker] Buy Sell Arrows or 
Not?Still another basic question based on a puzzling 
observation: I thoughtthat all trades had to have or show corresponding 
trade arrows on theprice chart when using either Raw Signals or Actual 
Trades.If I have a long and later exit by Selling, then the Price Chart 
willshow a Long (Solid green up arrow) followed by a Sell (Solid Red 
DownArrow).I did not think I could see a trade arrow without its 
corresponding exitor close trade arrow.  In other words, every Buy 
arrow must be followedby a Sell Arrow (even if a Short arrow is on the same 
bar).  Every ShortArrow must be followed by a Cover arrow, even if a 
Buy arrow is on thesame bar.As I have been implementing exact trade 
arrows (including Applystops)within Indicator Builder to match what is in 
the Price chart, I havecome upon many cases of a trade being reversed 
**WITHOUT** acorresponding trade arrow being shown.The attachments 
gives an example.  The AA results grid shows the tradebeing exited but 
there is no corresponding exit trade arrow.  At othertimes there is a 
paired comparison on entering and exiting the trade(whether long or 
short).Is this an inconsistency in the program or is there a minute rule 
thatdictates when these arrows are "paired up" and when they are not.  
MyPlotshape arrows follow the same "anomaly", that is, they match the 
RawSignals arrow for arrow.I suspect some twist in the Equity(1) 
routine, but who knows?Ideas?KenSend
