[amibroker] Question about Portfolio Backtester

["guhu0434" <g.h.h@xxxxxx>]

Hello,

I'm working with Amibroker since some months and I'm getting more and 
more familiar with it. I have a question regarding the backtester and 
hopefully somebody can help me and enlight me ...

As I know, the backtester scans for all buy and sell signals. Wether a 
specific stock will be traded can be controlled via different 
parameters, for an example with positionscore and positionsize.

But, what if the decision wether to buy or not depends on other stocks?

For an example, I give the stocks a specific "weight" and every week I 
want to buy the 5 "strongest" values. I know, with positionscore i can 
sort the values. But what if I want to stop buying after 5 values 
wether i have cash or not? Is this possible to controll?

Hints are very appreciated,

GuHu
