[amibroker] Re: AlertIf giving too many sell alerts

Thank you for the suggestion. My problem with that is the cross 
function only returns true on the day of the cross, but I am looking 
for the condition when both are true. If one condition crosses 
yesterday and the other today, I will miss my sell. I am trying to 
get the alert to signal in sync with the backtester, I only want to 
be notified if I am in a long position at the time of the sell. Any 
ideas?

Tom
