Thanks to all of you for the help. Here is what I came up with. I have some cleaning up to do related to State Form and Impulse Form, but this is easy enough.
// test name2. afl
SetForeign("BRSIX");
Cond1 = C >= EMA(C, 21) ;
RestorePriceArrays();
//Buy = Sell = Short = Cover = 0;
Buy = (Cond1 == True AND Name() == "BRSIX") OR
(Cond1 == False AND Name() == "POSSX");
Sell = (Cond1 == False AND Name() == "BRSIX") OR
(Cond1 == True AND Name() == "POSSX");
Short = 0; //Not shorting anything
Cover = 0;
Filter = 1;
AddColumn(C,"Close", 1.2);
AddColumn (Cond1, "Cond1",1.0);
AddColumn (Buy, "POSSX to BRSIX", 1, colorDefault, IIf(Buy, colorGreen, colorDefault));
AddColumn (Sell, "BRSIX to POSSX", 1, colorDefault, IIf(Sell,colorRed, colorDefault));

Bert,
There's confusion on the terms here. I see that POSSX is a Short Small cap
fund and BRSIX is a Long Small Cap fund. It appears you want to go long and
short (which in Amibroker would be Buy and Short). However, since you will
actually BUY POSSX when you get a short signal, you must BUY it in
Amibroker, otherwise it will think you Shorted a Short fund and only give
you gains when the fund goes DOWN.
That's why I had both conditions on the BUY line. You BUY BRSIX when your
Buy Cond1 is true and you Buy POSSX when your Short (Sell) condition is
true.
You might also check out rotational trading as suggested by another.
