Hi,
 
I am a newbie to Amibroker, but I had tried Metastock briefly. To me Amibroker is more user friendly and has many value added applications such as free data feed from IB and yahoo + many others....
 
I need your help converting one my trend following indicator to Amibroker format and create buy and sell signals for my backtesting. While at the same time I will try to learn a little bit at a time in doing so. Any useful reference for me would be appreciated.
 
Anyway thinks you all in advance.
 
Best regards,
 
Tim
