Yes you could use the Foreign function for this
An example could be with SHPIX
Short = foreign( "ARTKX", ShortCondition) ;
It will need more to make it work fully, but this is a starting point

Subject: [amibroker] Long and Short /Long positions ?
Being rather new to Amibroker and this board and not
having mastered code writing yet, I wonder if I may ask,
for many I am sure, a simple question relating to equity
backtesting.
I have tried many options and searched the archive, but
to no avail.
The question is related to the following:
I have a timing signal (imported) which I use to BUY
a particular fund or selection of funds in AA under
backtester. When I SELL, I will go into cash....
I cannot short the fund.
However, I can by an inverse fund, simulating a short
position rather than go into cash during the Sell period
of my timing signal.
I would like to know how to test (code) a system, where
I buy i.e. ARTKX (long) on a buy signal, and buy i.e.
SHPIX (short) during a sell signal and show (plot) the
composite returns etc.
Forgive me, if I have overlooked this in the help files.
