[amibroker] Re: Why is backtester filtering add on signals?

I'm not sure that is possible.  In a scan, there are many 'Buy', 'Sell' 
signals but in a backtest - a 'Buy' signal will occur only after 
a 'Sell' signal has taken place.  If there are other 'Buy' signals 
prior to the 'Sell' - they will be ignored.  That is you cannot 
backtest overlapping signals.  However, I'll leave it to other AFL 
experts to confirm.
