[amibroker] Break-Out Exploration

Trading Reference Links


Hi all:
Here's an exploration I ran across that looks interesting. It is
written in a Technifilter formula language. It filters for stocks
breaking out from lows so should be good for both longs and shorts.
I would like to test it out in AmiBroker but my programing skills are 
minimal to none.  Consequrntly, it would be most appreciated if 
someone could develope an appropriate formula from the information 
below.  Many thanks for your contemplated help

Finding Tradable Stocks

We have a 20 day low, and then 4 days later, a lower low. Today's
close must be greater than the 20-day low to be a buy.
Note: Look back at 20-days only, but this can be increased depending
on your strategy. For lower low look back 4-days, because one wants
to make sure that the lower low has been established.
