Did
you plot the code i posted [ Tue 01/18/2005 7:59 PM ]? Your best bet to
solve this problem is to visualize it.

Many thanks
Graham,
Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work. I may be doing
something
wrong:
My code
is:
buy=...conditions
short=...conditions
sell=short;
cover=buy;
BestLong
= valuewhen( sell, highestsince(buy,h) );
BestShort = valuewhen( cover,
lowestsince(short,L) );
Sell=bestlong;
Cover=bestshort;
Buy =
ExRem(Buy,Short);
Sell = ExRem(Sell,Buy);
Short =
ExRem(Short,Buy);
Cover = ExRem(Cover,Short);
The sell happens on
the next bar after a buy rather than searching
for the highest high before
a short signal.
Any assistance would be
appreciated,
Cheers
Sam
