The issue is not with Buy=H or not. It's with the other signals. If what you
say was correct, the system would buy the high of every candle, which does
not. Thanks anyway. Still looking for answers.

Buy is like a light switch ... On or Off, it is NOT a methodology to
take action at a price ...
Buy = H ... Tells AB to Buy on EVERY BAR at the HIGH of that Bar ...
Why ? ... because BUY and H are arrays ...
Although incorrect ... If you had said ... Buy[i] = H[i]; ... The buy
would probably have occured on the bar you wanted it to i.e. the same
one where the cross occured ... but NOT at the High ... For Buys to
occur at specific points you need to use the BuyPrice Array ...
PS ... Buying at the H or L price of the current bar is never a good
idea because these are unknown until the bar is no longer current.
