I am trying to backtest a system that is giving me problems with outside bars. First of all, it is possible that there could be a buy and sell on the same bar and Amibroker is going to have to make a choice. How does it handle this situation?
Now let's assume it takes the sell. The next bar clearly shows a stop would be elected if you were short, but Amibroker does nothing . In fact is does not stop you out of the position until the next long entry point.
Is there any way to work around these problems?
I am a newbie, as green as they come, but this seems like it would be a common topic. Yet, I have been on this list for over six months and do not remember this subject coming up once. Maybe it has and I don't remember, but it seems like it would be as common as a plot shapes issue.
