[amibroker] Newbie question - short trades

["trageley" <trageley@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All,

I have a simple question that I couldn't figure out from the 
documentation.  If I'm setting up a backtesting strategy where I 
want to place short trades, I cannot seem to get my trades to show 
up.  The editor specified that Buy and Sell signals must be defined, 
so I just set Buy = 0 and Sell = 0 b/c I don't want to place long 
trades - I just want to define Short and Cover.  Unfortunately, this 
didn't work.  Can anyone tell me how I work define a system that 
defines short trades?

Thanks a lot!
tom
