Re: [amibroker] Force Buy of Particular Fund

Ken,

There is no NEED to use rotational mode at all. It is provided as a faster replacement
for already existing PT formulas. But for nothing more.

99% of cases are solved by regular mode.

You just need REGULAR mode all the time if you have buy/sell signals.
Regular mode ALLOWS RANKING TOO and allows buy/sell signals to be evaluated.

So use REGULAR mode.

fc = Foreign("INDEX", "C")

Buy = Cross( fc, MA( fc, 50 );
Sell = Cross( MA( fc, 50 ), fc );

PositionScore = 100 - RSI();


This code would attempt to enter long on *all securities* at the same time
 when INDEX close rises above its MA
and will exit long on INDEX close falling above MA.

Among all securities under test ONLY THOSE scored HIGHEST will be entered.
(in the example formula securities with LOW RSI are preferred)

Best regards,
Tomasz Janeczko
