RE: [amibroker] Back testing Calculation

["Paul Ho" <paultsho@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Answer to your 1st Question is in the help file of applystop

If two or more different stops are triggered on the VERY SAME bar then they are evaluated in this fixed order:

Fixed Ruin stop (loosing 99.96% of the starting capital)
Max. loss stop
Profit target stop
Trailing stop
N-bar stop
Answer to your 2nd question is "yes" if your definition of "work" is charting. charting and backtesting can have settings independent of one another.

Subject: [amibroker] Back testing Calculation

Hi,

if I'm testing a strategy based on daily bars, and if my take profit
order and stop loss order are hit on the same day, how does amibroker
treat this situation?
If i have intra day data available, is it possible to work on daily
bars and indicators, but run the backtest on the intraday data?

thanks
