[amibroker] RE; Bob Jagow "LineArray"

Thanks for your input Bob. But nobody has yet shown me how to Explore
or Backtest the History of a Stock with LineArray.. I did not mean to
confuse things using the CCI as an example. Take a Stocks price for
example (all positive values). Draw a extended LineArray across all
neighboring PEAKS for the 1 year history of that stock. Then BUY =
cross(C, LineArray); For me that CROSS only shows in an AA for the
last historical "Line" on that stock (if there was a cross). Not much
of an Explore or Backtest.

****************************
How can I Detect    
CROSS( C, LineArray);   
For many LineArrays over a stocks history for Explore or Backtest?

I don't want to Draw STUDYs. Too subjective for me and I like to
Backtest in mass. Then, if things look interesting I Refine from
there. Thanks for your tip on up scaling the CCI so it is always
positive for PEAKS test.

Jack,
LINEARRAY-generated lines are fine, I was complaining only that you can't
use Study() to localize their use.
I get by with watchlists and CHARTID, but miss a layer-enabled linearray.

Although anything's possible, I see a lot of problems in developing a
backtest version of your trendline break code.
No point in worrying about backtesting unless explore/scan/plot proves
interesting, so why not scan and explore hand-drawn study lines to
prove the
concept?

If you pass that gate, it's a lot easier IMO to use Peak(sCCI,chng,n) and
Peak(sCCI,chng,n), where sCCI is shifted up for use with Peak--e.g.
[sCCI =
CCI() + 400].
