Re: [amibroker] Execute AFL Once Per Backtest (Not Once Per Symbol)

["Tomasz Janeczko" <groups@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

Things like that should be done from EXTERNAL script (Windows Scripting Host).
First do your watch list stuff, then run backtest. All automatically
controlled by external script that you would launch by double click on icon.
