[amibroker] Re: Backtest - Signal type

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

Can't you just set the position size in the main AFL code so that you
don't need to know in the CBI?

Otherwise use PositionScore with the condition number passed as part
of the value. For example, if PositionScore is set to some value
that's always greater than zero and less than 1000, then add something
like:

PositionScore = PositionScore + conditionNo*1000;

Then in the CBI, after you've used this information, remove the
condition number part so that signals are still ranked correctly:

sig.PosScore = sig.PosScore % 1000;

Regards,
GP
