Hey Ume,

Check the code, ie., test/run the code. I doubt over either its logic or the presentation of the BUY conditions.

MA is moving average
EMA Exponential Moving average

Hi,

I'm really sorry again for the late reply.

Here is its AFL:

Buy = (MA(C,4) < MA(C, 17) < EMA(C, 34)) AND MACD() > 0 AND RSI() > 50;
Sell = (MA(C,4) > MA(C, 17) > EMA(C, 34)) AND MACD() < 0 AND RSI() < 40;

Here is the AFL:

Period1 = Param("ShortPeriod", 50, 2, 200,1);
Period2 = Param("LongPeriod", 200, 2, 200,1);

Buy = Cross( EMA(C, Period1), EMA(C, Period2));
Sell = Cross( EMA(C, Period2), EMA(C, Period1));

dist = 1.5*ATR(10);

for( i = 0; i < BarCount; i++ )
{
if( Buy[i] ) PlotText( "Buy\n@" + C[ i ], i, L[ i ]-dist[i], colorGreen );
if( Sell[i] ) PlotText( "Sell\n@" + C[ i ], i, H[ i ]+dist[i], colorRed, colorYellow );
}

PlotShapes( Buy * shapeUpArrow + Sell * shapeDownArrow, IIf( Buy, colorGreen, colorRed ) );

Please check the first post in the thread :"Amibroker: Links, Discussions and more" thread. That has the link for the thread that explains the procedure for backtest.

Please give more details. Information given is not sufficient.

Dear Praveen
Thanks a lot, It was nice i added "plot" to the EMA lndicator and working well.
Regarding backtest i could not get ur correct link, please provide here.

I need some more clarification in amibroker, even if these questions may be basic, please guide me,
1) For intraday signals for MACD and RSI kindly suggest the time period that works out well (particularly for nifty trades )
2) what is ur suggesion on EMA crossover indicators for indraday trades (again for nifty)

Thanks in advance.

Raj

The best source where you can learn about Backtesting is Amibroker User Guide. I went through others too, but Users Guide is THE best. Backtesting is discussed under the heading "Back−testing your trading ideas", the Page. no. falls around 119. Check it out there.

It explains each and every bit of backtesting, with well defined examples.

My knowledge on indicators is next to nothing. Please consult the seniors who are good in indicators like Karthikmarar, etc.

Hi frnds,

I dont hav much idea of AFL's. In metastock we change the colour od the bars as in, if the stcok has closed up for the day the bar is green and if its closed down bar is red. Is it possible to do so in Amibroker too. I know that CAndle colors can be changed thru the preference panel. But how about bars. I think there has to be an AFL for that.

If so pls can some one tell. If there is any other method still pls do tell me.

Thnaks In Advance

Here is the required AFL:

Code:

_SECTION_BEGIN("BarChart");
SetChartOptions(0,chartShowArrows|chartShowDates);
_N(Title = StrFormat("{{NAME}} - {{INTERVAL}} {{DATE}} Open %g, Hi %g, Lo %g, Close %g (%.1f%%) Vol " +WriteVal( V, 1.0 ) +" {{VALUES}}", O, H, L, C, SelectedValue( ROC( C, 1 )) ));
UpColor = ParamColor("UpColor", colorBrightGreen);
DownColor = ParamColor("DownColor", colorRed);
MyColour = IIf(C >= O, UpColor, DownColor);
PlotOHLC(O,H,L,C,"Price", MyColour, styleBar);
Plot( Volume, _DEFAULT_NAME(), IIf(C>O, ParamColor("UpVolume", colorBlue), ParamColor("DownVolume", colorViolet)), ParamStyle( "Style", styleHistogram | styleOwnScale | styleThick, maskHistogram  ), 2 );
_SECTION_END();
