Herman,
 
I'd test this if I were at my PC, but at first glance it seems your statements below are reversed from the code run in daily settings
 
Short=TimeFrameExpand(Buy, inDaily);Cover=TimeFrameExpand(Sell, inDaily);
 
vs
 
Short=Sell;Cover=Buy;
when TF == 1.
 
Hope this helps,
Gary

Hello,
 
When backtesting the test code below I cannot get the same results when backtesting in TimeFrame-Daily and Settings-Daily mode. Can anybody tell me what is wrong with it?
 
Many thanks for any help you can give!
herman.
 



TF=0; // set to 1 when running with Settings set to Daily, set to 0 when running with Settings set to minutes. Backtested on the QQQ for the period 10/13/03 to 04/04/04
 
// With AA Settings set to Daily this gives 14.34% profitif(TF==1) {Buy=Cross( MACD(), Signal() );Sell = Cross( Signal(), MACD() );Short=Sell;Cover=Buy;}
 
// With AA Settings set to 1-minute this gives 11.07% profitif(TF==0){TimeFrameSet(inDaily);Buy=Cross( MACD(), Signal() );Sell = Cross( Signal(), MACD() );Short=Sell;Cover=Buy;TimeFrameRestore();Buy=TimeFrameExpand(Buy, inDaily);Sell=TimeFrameExpand(Sell, inDaily);Short=TimeFrameExpand(Buy, inDaily);Cover=TimeFrameExpand(Sell, inDaily);}
