Hi Cesar,

I am not sure if it is in your version, but I would use SetForeign() for
this.

Subject: [amibroker] Using VIX as a trigger


I want to do a backtest on the SPY where I use if the VIX is x%
percent below its N day sma as a trigger to buy. How do I do this?
There is probably a simple answer that I have not found.

I will also want to do a backtest that involves the VIX and another
symbol as the trigger.

I have done lots of other backtests but none that use other symbols
as triggers.

I am using version 4.3 of AmiBroker.

Thank you,
Cesar
