Ray,
It is not AmiBroker issue but your formula issue. You are
using "last" price of incompleted bar
and think that it works as close. It does not. It would work
as close once bar is completed,
so if you generate your signal using PREVIOUS bar close
(ie. Ref( Close, -1 ) ) you will get consistent results.
If you *really* *really* want to use incompleted bar "last"
value that may and will change and in most cases will
not remain the same when bar completes (so your signal may be
invalidated), you can use static variables
IN static variables you can store the date/time of your
original entry as well as position size.
Best regards, Tomasz Janeczko amibroker.com

Subject: [amibroker] Alert Output Arrows
Disappear on the chart
My Buy/Sell alerts happen in the first 15 to 45 seconds of a
minute, based on momentum. They show on the Alert Output chart GREAT, BUT
they dissappear from the chart if the alert condition does not HOLD for
the FULL minute. This has been a problen for several people, who have
requested a solution.
Thomasz says TOO BAD as he says to go back a
minute in time., But this is too late for my automatic trading software
which copies the Buy/Sell to another program, then to Zeroline Trader as
the front end to IB.
Can this be solved by software that could
write the arrow on the chart where it should be? I am sure Thomasz should
and could do it. With this capability it would be used to check out each
buy/sell. Right now it is hopless as it may involve more than 100 trades a
day. This is real time backtesting using ER2.
Does anybody have a
solution?
Ray
