- Need help on system needs!
Wondering if I can get some help with the more experienced folks 
here...Am I able to generate buy/sell signals from one symbol, like 
VIX, for another symbol like SPY?<FONT 
color=#0000ff face=Arial size=2> 
 
<FONT 
face=Arial>Yes..... take a look at the Foreign() in the 
help section I've been working with 
Amibroker for some time, and I'm a bit frustrated at how little I've been 
able to get done.As the most basic example, how do I set up and test a 
system to do:1) Buy when VIX hits 40, sell when VIX hits 25.<SPAN

size=2> <SPAN 
class=173165014-20052003> 2) The buy/sell signals would be 
tested on SPY.<FONT color=#0000ff face=Arial 
size=2> 
 
<FONT color=#0000ff 
face=Arial>your code would address the Vix as a foreign() and the test would be 
run on a single issue (Spy). Instead of "Hits" 40 or 25 you may wish to 
use the Cross() function, again found in the help 
section. TIA...(or is Amibroker not 
capable of working with 2 symbols simultaneously?)<FONT
