Re: [amibroker] Multiple Higher Highs in Amibroker?

Interesting. I've often wondered how to do that. I have created a function that can be called based on this code. I have quickly checked the results and think it works as intended. It is 1 based - not zero based. To calculate the 4th Highest Close - pass C to array etc. functionNextHiRa

[amibroker] Copying Studies Across Chart IDs

Hi Dennis, I know I must be missing something blatantly obvious, but don't know what. When I copy/paste your functions to a new Editor session and run Backtest I get the following error: Error 29. Variable 'g_firstbar' used without having been initialized. If I initialize the globals outside

Hi Dick, I use it in places that an MA, EMA, WMA, or AMA would typically be used. I don't just use it by itself for trading. It would be up to you to test it in your own trading styles to see if it adds value during your backtests. It is very good for de-trending, as it tries to slice right

Re: [amibroker] EOD exit

I have some questions: I thought that TimeNum() returned the time stamp of an existing bar, so that if you were using 1 minute bars, you would not get the signal until 125600, or with 5 minute bars until 13. Is that not correct? Wouldn't it be better to use either TimeNum() >= 125500 (for
