[amibroker] Incorrect Risk:Reward Stats in Backtest Report!

["dralexchambers" <dralexchambers@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

My trading system is as follows:

LongSetup = Cross(PDI(8),MDI(8));
Longstop = Low - 0.0050;    // This is FX: 50 points trailing stop
Stopbuy = High + 0.0005;    // Buy point is 5 points above high of 
setup day

Buy = H>StopBuy;
BuyPrice = Max(Open,StopBuy);

Sell =  L < LongStop;
SellPrice = Min(Open,LongStop);

Buy = ExRem( Buy, Sell );
Sell = ExRem( Sell, Buy ); 


This works fine in the backtester. However, the risk:reward ratio 
stats are wrong.

Risk:Reward should be:

(SellPrice - BuyPrice) / (Stopbuy - Longstop)
     [Reward]                    [Risk]

So...

How does Amibroker know that SellPrice, buyPrice, Stopbuy and 
longstop are my variables to use for Stats calculations? It doesn't 
seem to, therefore, the stats are wrong!!!
