What about using the AFL Wizard ? Of course you must understand what you're doing. Meaning that you can define the problem from a logical point of view ...

You dont even need to be programming expert to understand array, barssince whatever, just need your ability to think critically.
Barssince(buy) is the number of bars since the last buy signal. I 'll give you a hint, every time there is a buy signal barssince is reset to zero.
Can you figure that out yourself why your code is behaving the way it is?
Sometimes you 've got to forget about doing things your way, and try to do it the way its meant to be used.
I dont know if you have noticed it yourself, whinging hasn't solved any problem for you has it?

Look, Im no dope. I can see that this is a powerful and fast platform.

But every time I sit down to do the simplest thing, I spend hours
torturing over details of the language. This is not productive.

I know if I spent 10 hours a day for the next month on it, I'd be an
expert too.

Was hoping not to have to do that
