I have never traded FOREX, so I wouldn't know much about the potential
problems you may encounter. If i had this kind of problem I would write some
simple test code to test/reveal the problem, with as few lines of code as
possible. If the problem is still there you can then post this code to this
list, there are FOREX traders here so probably someone will run/test the
code for you on their machine. If no success here you can email it to
support. The simpler your question and the easier it is to verify the better
your chance for a quick answer.
Good luck,
herman

Subject: RE: [amibroker] Applystop question
Hi Herman, thanks for your quick reply. I applied your code and my
backtest stopped on
first trade with Price showing -1e+010
I really think Ami cannot deal with 4 decimal places correctly as found in
FX quotes. Most
times the prices when displayed in Scan, chart headings etc are truncated
to 2 decimal
places. Yet on back tests and on some of the tooltips I see 5 decimal
places displayed.
and I can't understand how my TradePrice can be out of range. If the Stop
should be X & X
is a valid price on that bar, why is it not honoured? I've asked twice on
this list if the
4 decimal place issue would be addressed, but so far no reply. Amibroker
is great piece of
software, but is not, as of yet, fully compatible with forex data.
cheers
