Hello All!  I've now been using AmiBroker for about 3 weeks.  

I've noticed a few quirks which I cannot quite get to the bottom of.  
I have my indicator built and this works fine.  I do not trade 
intraday, and download data each morning using Yahoo historical 
quotes.  I then run backtester to figure out which trades to make. 

Sometimes after I run backtester I see new trades for the same day 
which were not previously present.  I've noticed that most of these 
trades (but not all) are the result of a gap up in price on the day 
in question.  For example, yesterday morning my indicator generated a 
buy signal on VCLK as well as some others based on 4/22 EOD data.  
This morning I downloaded EOD data for 4/23 and noticed a new trade 
for MCRL which was not present yesterday morning.  How would I 
eliminate this trade from my backtest results?

My second question is that my formula determines the # of shares to 
buy based on 25% split of my portfolio.  Since I included this in the 
formula, it no longer will account for margin when determining the # 
of shares to buy.

Can anyone help? 

Thanks for your time!
