[amibroker] Re: Reference first signal

["marmal417" <marmal@xxxxxxx>]

Thanks. With this method I get a new buy signal every time the close 
is inside the bands and then outside again.
So how would I write if I want no new buy signal until either a sell 
signal OR a profitstop exit? Something like this?

Buy = Cross(C,bbandtop(c,20,2));
sell= L<valuewhen(buy,low,1);

applystop(stoptypeprofit,stopmodepercent,5,true);

And then how do I write no new buy signals until sell is true OR 
profitstop exit is true using ExRem? In other words how can I 
reference a stop using exrem?

Regards,
Martin
