Can you maybe tell me some reasons which would result that AmiBroker doesn't take signals from the signal object ?
Basically my code already removes additional signals through exrem function and my trading loop.
 
So i think the following list should cover all conditions in which AB wouldn't take signals:
 
1.) AA Settings: Max. Open Positions
2.) AA Settings: Usage of build-in Stops
3.) AA Settings: Usage of build-in Trade delays
4.) AA Settings: General Tab: Activate Stops immediately, Reverse entry signal forces exit and Allow same bar exit.
5.) Equity during backtest already negative.

Not if you have buy and sell set to Close, otherwise I think it will
(certainly does with mine).

The signal list contains all signals generated by the Buy and Sell
arrays whether they're ultimately taken or not.

Also note in your code that GetPositionValue returns a single number,
not an array, so you don't need "posval[bar]", just "posval". Still
seems to work the same though.
