Hello,

Simply Use DayOfWeek() function:
http://www.amibroker.com/f?dayofweek

dw = DayOfWeek();
NewWeek = dw != Ref( dw, -1 );

NewYear = Year() != Ref( Year(), -1 );

WeekNumber = Sum( NewWeek, BarsSince( NewYear ) );


Best regards,
Tomasz Janeczko

Subject: [amibroker] WEEKLY function workaround


>A suggestion I made at the AmiBroker site recently was a "WEEK" 
> function similar to "MONTH".  I don't, however,  think it will happen 
> any time soon.
> 
> I used MONTH to look back over several years to find which months 
> each of my various systems worked the best - and worst.  It was a 
> very valuable exercise.
> 
> I would like to go one step further now, and break each month into 
> two portions:  the 1st thru the 15th, and the 16th to the end of 
> month.  
> 
> Can any of you suggest a way I might separate the year into 24 
> separate trade entry time periods and be able to Backtest without 
> regard to the year?  What I mean is, I'd like to lump together my 
> System trades which are entered in the first 2 weeks of January (for 
> instance) over the last 5 or 10 years, and compare them to the 
> results for trades entered in the other 2-week periods.
> 
> Any suggestions or thoughts would be welcome.
