Keith,
Have you tried the formula ? I made the adjustments
as you stated still does not work...although
I had them the way you suggested earlier...I have
been trying but something is not working properly.
Description:
When there is a new buy or sell signal the cumCst
will reset to 0.10 and increment by 0.003
until it gets to a maximum of 0.13, this is not
happening with the formula below....I can not
see the error, can anyone ?
Here is the complete formula
Buy=Cross(C,EMA(C,19));
Sell=Cross(EMA(C,19),C) ;
CumCst=0.00;
poslong=0;
posshort=0;
for (i=1; i <
BarCount; i++)
{
if(Buy[i])
{
poslong=1;
posshort=0;
CumCst[i]=0.10;
}
if(Sell[i])
{
poslong=0;
posshort=1;
CumCst[i]=0.10;
}
if(posshort)
{
if(C[i] < C[i-1])
CumCst[i] = CumCst[i-1] + 0.003;
else
CumCst[i] = CumCst[i-1];
}
if(poslong)
{
if(C[i] > C[i-1])
CumCst[i] = CumCst[i-1] + 0.003;
else
CumCst[i] = CumCst[i-1];
}
if(CumCst[i] > 0.13)
CumCst[i] = 0.13;
}
per=19;
Smth=2/(per+1)+CumCst;
MovAvg=AMA(C,Smth);
Plot(movavg,"",colorBlue,1);
Plot(C,"",1,64);
PlotShapes(Buy*shapeUpArrow,colorGreen,0,L,-20);
PlotShapes(Sell*
shapeDownArrow,colorRed,0,H,-20);
Title="cumulative value = "+WriteVal(Cumcst,1.3);

Anthony --
I have added
comments to your code below:
//
Anthony.afl
Buy=Cross(C,EMA(C,19));
Sell=Cross(EMA(C,19),C)
;
CumCst=0.00;
poslong=0;
posshort=0;
for (i=1; i < BarCount;
i++)
{
if(Buy[i])
{
poslong==1; // == doesn't set
poslong to 1, it stays 0
posshort==0;
// use = to set value
CumCst[i]=0.10;
}
if(Sell[i])
{
poslong==0;
posshort==1; // == doesn't set posshort to 1, it stays
0
CumCst[i]=0.10;
// use = to set
value
}
if(posshort) // posshort is 0 and code below is
never executed
{
if(C[i] < C[i-1])
CumCst[i] = CumCst[i-1] +
0.003;
else
CumCst[i] =
CumCst[i-1];
}
if(poslong) //
poslong is 0 and code below is never executed
{
if(C[i] >
C[i-1])
CumCst[i]
= CumCst[i-1] + 0.003;
else
CumCst[i] =
CumCst[i-1];
}
Keith,
Thanks...but that does not seem to be the
problem..when there is a signal
buy or sell...cumCST starts at 0.10 and
increments by 0.003 as per the
formula...that is not happening....it must
be something else
Anthony

Hello,
Could someone look at this please...I can not see the
error...
The cumCST should increment up to .13 but it is not
happening..
Thank you
