Hi Roy,
Thanks a lot. I checked that and it works fine. But here is the
question: Now, using your shifting, the equity curve is correct but
the signals in explorer are received one day after they are
generated. Because if 0 bar is today then the signal on the open will
be generated one day late. I just run the tester and an exploration
for a date I know the signal was generated. Your method gave the
correct backtest but a signal was not generated for next open. In
other words, you need a different formula for the tested and the
explorer for the same system to produce compatible results. Beyond
that, you may not even be getting the right signal timming if your
are using the formula that's good for the tester only.
We got a serious problem here, I mean Metastock's got one.
