Pair Trading Strategy Journal

My spread is a candlestick graphe. I use the following formula:

OpenSpread = Open / Foreign("BN.PA","Open");
HighSpread = High / Foreign("BN.PA","High");
LowSpread = Low / Foreign("BN.PA","Low");
CloseSpread = Close / Foreign("BN.PA","Close");
PlotOHLC( OpenSpread, HighSpread, LowSpread, CloseSpread, FullName()
+"-"+"BN.PA"+" Spread", colorBlack, styleCandle );

I need the ATR of this chart. Any idea?
Thanks

Use substitution.

H = HighSpread;
L = LowSpread;
C = CloseSpread;

Now do ATR and Plot

Then cancel the effect with RestorePriceArrays()

Give this a spin.

Also AB yahoo group is best for this type of discussion.

to all of you that use pair trade finder. what do you put for max days in trade. if you use 10 does it not go by 10 calendar days? i moved mine to 14 to use 2 weeks and today i am paying the price. thanks for any input.
 
Interesting day yesterday. From pairs trading perspective I was surprised that my positions where not affected a lot, although I have a bit of open loss now and it will be interesting to watch if the position will recover or I will be hit by drawdown.

I have closed 2 pairs yesterday:
AEM-BVN for loss -2,9%
BMY-WX for gain 9,8%
