Hi Members
I'm learning AFL code and have written some basic SMA strategies.
Can someone please help me write a code to a simple buy and exit strategy.
For example, In regards to the stock, say Coca Cola (KO),
I'd like to Buy (at the open)on 01-03-2000 (January 3, 2000)
and
SELL (at the close) on 12-29-2006 (December 29, 2006)
Thank you for your time and patience while I'm learning.
