To: amibroker@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi,
if Buy= cross(ema(c, 15), ema(c,50))
then it is recommended that no signals be taken till (as a thumb rule)  - Largest EMA * 3 periods
In this case how do instruct to postpone taking the first BUY signal till 50*3 =150 bars from the befining of test period?

Do I do something like  - iff(barindex() <=300, buy=0, buy) ??

Sorry if the code looks clunky - I am an absolute rookie and I have just written my first system AFL today. Still figuring if it works the way i intended it to! B-). But Amibroker rocks!
TIA
