Hello,
You should do the other way round: set current symbol to symbol A,
and use SetForeign() to switch to instrument B for calculations of your signal.
Yes there is a price bound checking as described in the user's guide:
http://www.amibroker.com/guide/h_backtest.html
(it can be turned off using SetOption, but as I wrote above better
way is to do the other way round)
Best regards,

Subject: [amibroker] Restriction on buyprice/sellprice being foreign
Hi,
Im trying to simulate trading instrument A based on the price action
of instrument B. To do this, i write all the code normally for
instrument B, then i just set the
buyprice/sellprice/shortprice/coverprice arrays to the prices of
symbol A. However, the backtest gives prices based on symbol A's data
even though im setting the buyprice/sellprice/shortprice/coverprice to
FOREIGN function.
Is there any restriction on buyprice/sellprice/shortprice/coverprice
being set to a FOREIGN function?
