Errors in 'Quantitative Trading Systems' by Howard Bandy

[hedron]

I'm getting quite a few errors in the code contained in this book. Does anyone know which version of AFL and Amibroker was used to make the code? It does not say in the book itself.

Greetings --

The code works for any reasonably current version of AmiBroker.

Errors are probably due to either:
1. word wrap.
2. quotation marks.

Hmm...

Figure 13.6 will not run. Line 8 results in Error 52. You have to change fastlength to a value 2 or greater for the script to run.

Figure 17.1 will not run correctly either. The attached picture shows an incorrect output. I've looked at it until I was blue and it has nothing to do with word wrap or quotations.

There are at least two more, but I don't remember which ones they were.
