Herman,
From
Back-testing your trading ideas
...During back-testing AmiBroker will check if the values you 
assigned to buyprice, sellprice, shortprice, coverprice fit into high-
low range of given bar. If not, AmiBroker will adjust it to high 
price (if price array value is higher than high) or to the low price 
(if price array value is lower than low)...
