[amibroker] How to backtest linear regression?



PureBytes Links

Trading Reference Links

All, I know linear regression has been discussed multiple times here
and I have this piece of code:
================================
P = ParamField("Price field",-1);
Daysback = Param("Period for Liner Regression Line",21,1,240,1);
shift = Param("Look back period",0,0,240,1); 
//  Math Formula 
x = Cum(1);
lastx = LastValue( x ) - shift; 
aa = LastValue( Ref(LinRegIntercept( p, Daysback), -shift) ); 
bb = LastValue( Ref(LinRegSlope( p, Daysback ), -shift) ); 
y = Aa + bb * ( x - (Lastx - DaysBack +1 ) ); 

This works fine for "plotting" but I would like to develop a system to
backtest some of these conditions... the problem seems to be on the:
x= Cum(1); ... I'm not an expert coder but this only considers the
last bar...

What should I use in order to have this working in backtest mode? or,
for the last bar to be the current bar being backtested..

Sorry, very confused here. 

Thanks.
