Hi All,
I'd like to test how certain buy/sell rules perform on an indicator itself, using the indicator as price and not the stock price
For example, the buy/sell rules are:
buy=cross(indicator,MA(indicator,20));
sell=cross(MA(indicator,20),indicator);
Now I want the buy and sell prices to be the values of the indicator and not the stock prices
I tried to use:
buyprice=indicator;
sellprice=indicator;
but it didn't work
of course one can always create an artificial ticker by using AddtoComposite, then perform a backtest on it.
But I'm wondering if there is a better solution that doesn't require the use of Addto composite
Thanks
N.
