Is there a way to open and view Amibroker charts in a tab under Mozilla Firefox browser? I've tried opening it as a file, but it hasn't worked for me. I'd like to view other websites under other tabs while tabbing back and forth between Amibroker and them. If so, how to do so?

2009-04-04 Thread srengret
Does Amibroker allow two trailing stops? I've been trying to code two trailing stops with different criteria in Amibroker 5.10. Why do this: Some, but not all, of the ATR-based trailing stops allow too big of a loss when the 7% stop seems to catch them earlier. Here is what I've tried: The

I have two trailing stops implemented. Both use the ApplyStop function. One uses 7% and the other uses Close - (3*ATR(10)). When plotting these, it looks like one overrides the other. I set it up so that the sell arrows for each would be different colors so that I could see which one acted fi

I'm using Amibroker 5.10. I'm writing code to set a trailing stop at 3* ATR. I'm trying to plot 3 *ATR as a line to see this, yet I'm unable to plot it after checking references and modifying the code. The code worked fine using the ApplyStop for a 7% trailing stop. I commented it out to use
