[amibroker] Re: exit formula help needed

For these types of problems, it often helps to break up the 
conditions for easier understanding.

Using your example, what about something like:

Low1 = Ref(LLV(L,2),-1);
Low2 = ValueWhen(Buy,Ref(L,-1)-0.01);

Sell = L < Low1 OR L < Low2;

SellPrice = IIF(L < Low1,
  IIF(L < Low2,
    max(Low1, Low2),
    Low1),
  IIF(L < Low2,
    Low2,
    0)
);

I'm assuming that if both conditions are met, then the one that 
happened first (i.e. the higher price point) would be the selling 
price.
