[amibroker] Best exit price?

Hello,

I have been trying to solve this problem for some time using all 
sorts of functions in the backtester: HHV, barssince, valuewhen, 
barindex and so on.

Consider a simple stop and reverse system. I want to know what the 
best exit price could have been from a long position before the 
system reverses and what the best exit price that could be from a 
short position before the system reverses and goes long.

To put it another way, I would like to peek into the future to see 
what the best price I could exit my position at BEFORE I receive a 
signal in the opposite direction.

I am trying to find out the maximum profit that could be made using 
the system if you had the foresight to know exactly when to exit 
each and every position.

I would be grateful for any suggestions.

Many thanks

Sam
