RE: [amibroker] Help with Simple "IF" statement

["William Peters" <williampeters@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Arold,
 
Without commenting on the contents of your function itself 
because this function will only ever return 0 in which case you will never get 
any buy signals, but I guess you know that and are experimenting...
 
<FONT color=#800000 
size=2>function 
MyFunction() {    a = <FONT 
color=#ff00ff>0; 
   b = 0<FONT 
size=2>;    <FONT 
color=#800000>if 
( a > b )    {       a = 
1; 
      z = <FONT 
color=#ff00ff>1; 
   }    <FONT 
color=#800000>else<FONT 
color=#000000>    {       b 
= 1; 
      z = <FONT 
color=#ff00ff>0; 
   }    <FONT 
color=#800000>return<FONT 
color=#000000> z; } i = MyFunction(); <FONT 
color=#000000>Buy = ( i == 
1); <FONT 
color=#008000>/*I'm guessing this is what you actually want to do. Did you want 
to compare i with 1? If so then you need to use the == (equals) 
operator.*/
