[amibroker] Re: Sell and Buy on different days

["Andy" <senft@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thank you for all your inputs.  I'm just getting back from a stomach
virus so I took some time off.   Yes, I already knew that a purchase
of a stock prediction would be sketchy since I wouldn't know which one
would get hit first in the OCA order.  The random function does help
in this situation just a little bit but it's not the answer.  Like
people said, I would need intra-day data.

I also noticed that I need a better exit strategy.  Sells on the 3rd
or more bar day usually ends up in a loss.  I have to play with that a
bit.  

I should give you some background of how I came up with this script. 
 I played around with WealthLab 4 years ago which had a nifty feature
of not only backtesting a script but a batch of scripts.   I most of
backtested thousands of user's scripts against a basket of 20 or so
high volume ETF's.  The best results came up with from an ATR script
and also a True Range script which is just a variation of a regular
ATR script.

If you charted the backtest results, it's a bit smoother than most
scripts probably because it deals usually with a 2 bar day trade and
it's working with ETF's.   Technicals on ETF's are a bit different as
you can imagine.
