Hi,
I'm trying to backtest a system after reading Howard Bandy's book but
have run into a future leak problem w/ the following code.
Being a beginner in all this I"m not quite sure where the problem and
how to fix it. Any help would be great. TIA.

# Use any of your favorite stock investing software. This example
assumes excel based system.
# Calculate the Lowest Close for a stock in last 260 days. if a stock
has less than 260 days data calculate Lowest Close for those many
days.
# Calculate percent change from Lowest Close AND select stocks which
had 100% plus growth
# Find the Highest price in the 100% move AND only take stocks which
are within 25% of that Highest price.
# So this is your trading universe of stock which have made
significant move of 100% OR more AND are as of today within 25% of
the High during the move
# Use a significant one Day move scan on these stocks. e.g. Say a 5%
move ( 100 * (C - C1) / C1) >= 5 AND V >= 1000 AND V > V1)
# Buy next Day with 1% risk AND stop below the Low of previous two
days bar
# Trail with a stop
# if you get stopped Buy again on next breakout
# Enjoy your profits*/
