Re: [amibroker] Help needed for AFL

["Tomasz Janeczko" <groups@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

>From the code you posted it looks like you are after existing after N-bars since entry.
If so, this is one liner applystop

ApplyStop( stopTypeNBar, stopModeBars, nBarExit, 1 ); 

As to the error, you need to read common mistakes docs:
