Hi Folks,
I am learning AFL, and tried to implement a simple strategy:
Buy when price drops 3% below yesterday's close
Sell when it is 3% above the purchase price

Here is the code:

BuySignal = ( Close - Ref(Close, -1) ) / Close;
SellSignal = (Close-BuyPrice) / Close;
Buy =  BuySignal < -0.03;
Sell = SellSignal > 0.03;

When I run it in scan I only get Buy signals, no sell signals. I
assume there is a problem with the logic, but I cannot see it...
I would appreciate a helping hand :-)
Thanks,                  Paul C.
