Yes - BUT - when I set n = 5 (say), the exploration gives me values
for the short trades, but ALL ZEROS for the buy trades.
Perhaps this thread could have been named AddColumn Puzzle, because
according to the help file, AddColumn "Adds a new column to the
exploration result list. The column shows array values and has a
caption of name." I had therefore assumed that the Exploration
should show the value in the Mn array (see my original message). In
other words, values should appear in the Exploration for BOTH the
Buys and the Shorts.
So - my problem is not solved and I am still confused.
Anyone?
