Hi Rik,

Buy/Sell variables expect expressions that resolve to True or False(1 or
0)...

your code:

    Buy = BuyPrice;
    Sell = SellPrice;

OTOH, attempts to set them to other than 1 or 0.

Subject: [amibroker] simple Back Test


I am trying to do a simple Back Test where I buy at close on a set date and
sell at close on last date. It does not work.

I am stumped.


/* This script reports the gain of the stocks in a portfolio*/
/*use Parameters to set number of days*/

/*Explore*/
Filter=1;
Filter = Ref( C,-1 ) != C;
StartClose = Ref( Close, -Param( "Days", 21, 1, 50, 1 ));

//Gain = Ref (C - StartClose);
AddColumn( C, "Close" );
AddColumn( StartClose, "StartClose" );
AddColumn(C - StartClose, "Gain");
AddColumn((((C-StartClose)/StartClose)) *100, "% Gain");


/*Back Test Rules, Buy at close on date set in Parameters, Sell on last
Close*/
SetTradeDelays(0,0,0,0);

BuyPrice = Ref ( Close, -Param( "Days", 21, 1, 50, 1 ));
SellPrice = C;
Buy = BuyPrice;
Sell = SellPrice;
