The "==" is not an assignment but a comparsion, the code "Sell == 3" returns
a 1 if Sell equals 3. This is the case when AmiBroker has executed a profit
stop.
So, in this case, when Sell equals 3 we assign a 1 to Short.
The line of code you give in your email is incomplete and should read:
Short = Sell == 3;

Subject: [amibroker] Re: profit target question
An error message appears:
Unknown identifier at line 4, column 15:
--------------^
I am not sure what the number 3 in this line is supposed to mean.
What I want to do is enter an opposite trade when reaching profit
target. So if I was long and reached profit target, I want to go
short now. Thanks for help again.
