Hi Bill --

The DateNum function might help.

01/01/2005 in AmiBroker datenum format is 1050101.  Your system might set up its buy condition as follows:

BuySignal = whatever;
Buy = BuySignal AND (DateNum()>=1050101);

Thanks,
Howard

Hi all,

I am a new user of Amibroker and I am trying to backtest a system I
have thought about for many years but have not had any software to
perform this before last week.

I have a problem and am looking for some help.

Due to different symbol start dates I need to generate the buy or sell
signal after a two year period.

i.e. AZN.L data starts on 01/01/2003, the first transaction cannot be
before 01/01/05. Whilst I can manually set this in the analyser for
each share I would like to automate it using AFL.

All help would be much appreciated.

Bill
