Re: [amibroker] Delaying A Buy or Sell

Try this.....

Plot ( Close, "Close", colorWhite, styleBar);
//Graph3Style = 1;
//Graph3Color = 43;
//Graph3 = EMA (Close, 5);
EMA5 = EMA(C,5);
Plot(EMA5,"EMA5",43,styleLine|styleNoRescale);
//Graph4Style = 1;
//Graph4Color = 42;
//Graph4 = EMA (Close, 13);
EMA13 = EMA(C,13);
Plot(EMA13,"EMA13",42,styleLine|styleNoRescale);
//Graph5Style = 1;
//Graph5Color = 32;
//Graph5 = (EMA (Close, 200));
EMA200 = EMA(C,200);
Plot(EMA200,"EMA200",32,styleLine| styleNoRescale);
/*
EMAdiff = (EMA13 - EMA200)*.13;
Plot(EMAdiff,"EMAdiff",28,styleLine);
*/
//Buy = Cross( EMA( Close, 5), EMA( Close, 13 ) ) AND Close > 
EMA(Close,200);
//Buy = Cross( EMA( Close, 5), EMA( Close, 13 ) ) AND Close < 
EMA(Close,200);
BuyStop = EMA5> EMA13 AND Cross( EMA5,EMA13);
//Sell = Cross( EMA( Close, 200 ), Close );
SellStop = Cross( EMA13, EMA5);
Buy =IIf(BarsSince(Buystop) == 5,1,0); //Delay set to 5 bars
Sell =IIf(BarsSince(Sellstop) ==5,1,0);
PlotShapes( shapeUpArrow*Buy, colorGreen,0, L, -20);
PlotShapes( shapeUpArrow*Buystop, colorOrange,0, L, -20);
PlotShapes( shapeDownArrow*Sell, colorRed,0,H, -20) ;
PlotShapes( shapeDownArrow*Sellstop, colorLightBlue,0,H, -20) ;
_SECTION_END();

Subject: [amibroker] Delaying A Buy or Sell


Here is my code I am working on just to try and understand AFL.
Nothing big just a cross of a 13 and 5 day ema. How Can I delay the
buys and sells for a given number of bars or days? I have tried
barssince function without any luck. I am sure I am doing something
wrong but getting frustrated and thought someone here could help me a
bit.

Thanks
Rusty
