RE: [amibroker] Long and Inverse Fund

G'day Ken,

I don't think that you will be able to do this with a "ranking system".   If
you only have the two funds (one long and one short), why are you using a
ranking system?  Why not do what you are doing now and then:

BUY = ticker == "ABC" and positionscore > x;
BUY = ticker == "XYZ" and positionscore < y;

Sorry, I haven't bothered with the syntax.  But you should get the drift.

Cheerio

Chuck

  Dingo:



  Yes, I tried this (as this was reply from Tomasz a year ago on same
  question) but I must have something wrong because the trade list only
  shows the longfund being bought.

  I guess you've tried:

  If ( Name() == "InverseFund" )
  {
      tmp = Buy; // must use temporary variable
      Buy = Sell;
      Sell = tmp;
  }

  ?
