RE: [amibroker] Re: Zweig 4% Rule/System

I took a quick look at the spreadsheet, it has something that is very different than what you have described
I think it goes something like sell if the close is certain % below the highest high since the last buy, and buy if it is certain % above the lowest low
since the last sell.

Paul,

Thanks for the help, unfortunately this doesn't match up with any of
the signals when compared to excel and also doesn't match up with
other sources who post this system. Now I just have to figure out why.
I appreciate your help and this has given me other ways to test.
Using FLIP seemed to get me closer but still didn't quite fit the
bill even when using the same data source. Again, thanks for taking a
look at it.

Thanks,
DM
