yeah the way I solved it looks complicated but basicly the solution in words
is: when the stoploss is hit you still need to sell at the sell defined by the
cross. For the sellprice you use the stopprice. This is the only way to prevent
the backtester from allocating funds right after the stop. T

Actually b < BarCount
should be used instead of for b < BarCount-1
since "less than" operator guarantees that b is never equal to BarCount.
Alternativelly one could use b <= BarCount-1 (note less or equal operator used
this time).

Tomasz,
To clarify my understanding (and perhaps help others as well):

and strings.
2) StaticVarSet allows one to store an array and then retrieve this via
StaticVarGet similar to

I have used Graham's (afl writing) service in the past (2006) and he did an
excellent job for me as well. My impression is that he is overly busy so there
is a few weeks of queue time but once he got around to it, he did an excellent
job.
On that point, it is quite obvious to me and others that
It is not about global or local (i.e. scope), but about lifetime of variables.
Static variables as far as scope is considered are global,
however that is not the most important thing.
The lifetime is where the main difference is.
The lifetime of static variable is as long as program is running,

simply set up your on checks to see if an event has occurred, and if it has,

For example, OnBar() that you are talking about could be achieved by looking
for a change in DateTime()

Hi sidhartha70,
Thanks for your thoughts. I actually did try something like that, but seemed to
find some sensitive timing issues. My objective was, as soon as I detected a
new bar (this was using one minute bars), to access information about the just
completed bar. At least in my experience, i
I'm sure TJ will comment on this. But you may need to use static variables. I'm
not sure.
But I'm pretty sure all this event stuff can already be achieved in AFL.

Gordon,
AFL is event driven. Some event causes your AFL program to execute.
You can check to see which event caused it to run and run all or a
portion of your program depending on the event.
Check back on your suggestion again for an example of bar closed.
You can suggest a new event type
Hi All,
to clarify what event driven programming model means read this article

To make it short and simple: the whole AFL code executes as a "single batch"
when some event (new tick, time refresh etc.) occures in AB. And then AFL

What I said is that I have to exit AFL between passes. That is to let
operations take place that will not run while I am inside the AFL

the Reset all button with my DLL) takes a whole new AFL pass from the
start

He did not write my code to specifications. He wasn't even close. It takes
forever for him to reply to emails and quite frankly, I don't think he even
read my emails to full extent. I wanted to call him to verify the
specifications before he started the job but he didn't want any of that.
Andy,
In my time in the forum I have tried to be fair to others and stick up for
fairness (didn't always succeed).
That is why I asked you to clarify further.
It seems that there is more to it than your original post and it involves
matters that can only be clarified by discussion between your

Actually, I'm writing it myself now. I'm just not up to speed on the
various indicators in what I should be using in my own system. I've
bought quite a few technical books so I'm deep into that right now. I
feel if I have one more indicator that works, it's going to be a robust

As I wrote before, in the past I have heard nothing but praise for Graham
expressed on this list many times.
I consider this thread as closed.
The original poster should resolve the issue in private.

Seriously, Thank you to everyone who made comments about the conference, and

Yes. I'm a computer illiterate. There is no doubt about that :)
