Re: [EquisMetaStock Group] Buy order

["Roy Larsen" <rlarsen_quik@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Fernando


A much better way to work with MetaStock is to change your perspective from "If that happened today do this tomorrow" to " if that happened yesterday do this today". If you use a perspective of always being in the present looking to the past you will get into a lot less trouble with MetaStock than if your perspective is sometimes from the present looking into the future.

Your example would be written

SellShort:=O < (Ref(L,-2)*0,05) ;

The timing of each event has been shifted by one bar but the formula now works without looking into the future. 

Hope this helps.


Regards

Roy

  Hi

  Can we give an order to buy or sell at tomorrow's opening if a certain condition is confirmed at tomorrow's opening? 

  For example, if Ref(O,+1) < (Ref(L,-1)*0,05) then sell short else do nothing

  Could this produce problems in a system?

  thank you
  regards
