Re: [amibroker] Hold Days - why not working?

["Tomasz Janeczko" <groups@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

 

Just use built-in N-bar stop, then you don't need to worry about repeated signals.

 

ApplyStop( stopTypeNBar, stopModeBars, HoldDays );

Best regards,

This is because a new buy signals appears before Holdays are up, resetting barssince to zero.

Hi
I coded this to sell immediately after so many days:
Sell = (BarsSince(Buy) >= HoldDays);
In some cases, the backtester does sell on the next open after my
stipulated number of days but other times it holds for much longer. I
haven't got any other sell commands. What am I doing wrong? Should I
code:
Sell = (BarsSince(Buy) = HoldDays) instead and set trade delay 1?
Thanks
