[amibroker] Re: Rounding up the BuyPrice to the nearest 0.25 point

["sslack88" <jzzpiano88@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Is there a way to always force Amibroker to round Up?  It seems the 
round function will round down to the integer 1265.20 would round 
down to 1265.  I want it to round up to 1266.

Is this possible?
