Regarding settings, what they do is give me part of what I want to do but not what I want. On
your advice, I did go through them a once again and a little more closely...I
had not noticed stops/profit target/Exit next bar at trade. That helps and
I am that new.

question
If you you've coded your Buy conditions well enough,
you might have
done the same for your sell conditions. I would move
on to check
your AA (Automatic Anlaysis) settings. Look at the
Stops, Buy/Sell
delays, "exit on same bar" etc. If you are very new
to AB, you
*must* really go through those settings to make sure you are
backtesting to what you think you are.
Could be there...

intent is to use an End of Day buy.
I'm really trying to understand
Amibroker AFL so any information of
how the Sell works or where I should
look would be appreciated.

take that. If I don't meet the profit target
I want to wait till the
second day after the buy and if the open is
greater than the buy I'll
take that and if that doesn't work I want to
sell at the buy and if
all else fails I want to close out the trade at the
end of the second
day after the buy. So, sell the next day if the open is
greater than
profit target (if not met) at the profit target (if not met)
the next
day if the open is greater than the buy (if not met) sell at the
buy
price (if not met) sell at Close to finish the trade. Odiously a
walk in the park for a lot you guys but a real puzzler for me. I'd
include the many variations of what I have written but I think you
guys would just laugh as I am so new.
