[amibroker] Re: trading signals for tomorrow

Sidney,

Here's what I do... for the current version of the system I'm using, I
have multiple versions of the AFL file:
1 - Charting version:  uses equity of fixed size (not Equity()) and
settrade delays all to 1,1,1,1. Since I also use an EOD system, and i
won't be able to buy in until the day after.
2 - Backtest version: uses Equity(), and settrade delays to 1,1,1,1.
3 - Daily Explore version:  uses fixed equity size and delays to
0,0,0,0.  Doestn' matter what BuyPrice is or anything.

Kinda of a pain, but if you're like me and likes to test and tweak
your backtest and charting version, you probably dont' want ot mess
with what's working for you on a daily/regular basis.

Try 0,0,0,0 and lemme know how that works.
