[amibroker] Re: Low Array

["jl2012_30" <jl2012_30@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi

I realised that my code will sell me out on the same day I buy the 
stock, since Low is smaller than Close (which is my BuyPrice) for 
that day. I checked my settings and figured out that since I did not 
allow exit on the same day, this exit is not reported. 

Thanks.
