Re: [amibroker] Determining Age of Open Position

["Tomasz Janeczko" <amibroker@xxxxxx>]

Hello,

There are many ways to do that. BarsSince( Buy) works if you eliminate
redundant symbols either using ExRem or Equity(1), but most robust is just
using Portfolio backtester interface
http://www.amibroker.com/guide/a_custombacktest.html

Each trade and open position has BarsInTrade property that just holds
the information you require.

Best regards,
