[amibroker] Re: plotting equity curve and using stats

["gp_sydney" <gp.investment@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hugh,

The Equity function cannot be used to generate rules for the Buy &
Sell arrays. That function evaluates all your rules and comes up with
the equity data all in a single function call, so you cannot make it
iterative per bar.

To make buy, sell and position size decisions based on current equity,
 you need to use the custom backtester interface.
