Amibroker backtesting results provide profit table in the form of compounded values. However, most of the traders when comes to real life trading they prefer using fixed capital as position size. If you want to test the profitability of your system in Month on Month Absolute terms then this article is for you.
One of the reasons why we came up with Absolute Returns – Profitable table amibroker afl code last time. And this time at our trader’s workplace, yet again my partner asked: “is it possible to get a Month on Month Profit/Loss table in Absolute Percentage on Initial Capital rather than in compounded percentage terms?”
Amibroker stores the Profit Table Computation in 3.Profit Table under /formulas/reports folder. with a simple tweak one can code for Absolute Percentage on Initial Capital rather than in compounded percentage terms.
Here is the Compounded Returns and Absolute Month on Month Returns – Profitable Table for one of our upcoming intraday trading system – v-Lintra Ultimate.

Hi Rajandran,
I use daily candle
Can you help me write a simple afl with the following conditions:
I want candle low is less than ma(close,50) within last 3 days (including current day)
I want candle open is greater than ma(close,50) within last 3 days (including current day)
I want candle close is greater than ma(close,50) within last 3 days (including current day)
what i reach so far is:
but i not sure about whether the code actually means what i want to achieve. Basically i have a problem with within last 3 days. Low has to be less than MA(close,50) for any of the of the day of the last 3 days and so on for others.
Filter=(LowRef(MA(Close,50),-3)) AND (Close>Ref(MA(Close,50),-3));
pls help.
Thanks
