[amibroker] Re: Determining bar number of specific date

["Mike" <sfclimbers@xxxxxxxxx>]

myYear = 2005 - 1900;
myMonth = 1;
myDay = 5;
myDateNum = (10000 * myYear) + (100 * myMonth) + myDay;
myDateBar = LastValue(ValueWhen(myDateNum == DateNum(), BarIndex()));

for (i = myDateBar; i < BarCount; i++) {
_TRACE("Index " + i);
}

Make sure that your chosen date is in fact an actual trading day. You might run into trouble if you are using Quick AFL.
