[amibroker] Cross vs. >

Can someone help me understand why

  Buy = Cross (Close, Threshold)

gives substantially different backtesting results than

  Buy = Close > Threshold

(with Buy on Open)?

I had been using > in Buy and Sell statements, but then noticed in 
the AFL Library that usually Cross was used. So I tried it, expecting 
that the results would be the same, but they were substantially 
different. What accounts for this? 

Thanks,

Damien
