Yes. Works great. I suggest 1 for Long, 2 for Short, 0 for Cash. I used
to use -1 for short and I still convert it in AFL, but you cannot ADD a
negative price using Quote Editor.

Fabulous, Terry, thanks.:)

Re:  TimingCube, you mean like if I took the dates on which they 
(claim to have) made trades, I could use them to run a test in AB?  
If so, just add a "1" or a "0" in one of the data-fields (or 
something along that line) for the signals?
