Delay of 1 is straight forward with EOD data. Delay of 0 with EOD data can be implemented when one downloads at say 15 minutes (or whenever) prior to market close allowing this download to be an estimate of EOD. --- In amibroker@yahoogroups.com, "an0n73" wrote: > > Hi all, > > If you are tes

Hi An0n73, i would disagree when you state it is not possible to trade a EOD strategy with SetTradeDelays(0, 0, 0, 0). A way of doing so is closing your trade session 15 minutes early. This gives you the opportunity to act upon the signal in the last 15 minutes of the trading day. It woul
