Amibroker Formula Language
AFL has similar features to commercial development languages. Decision making using loops and boolean logic, data manipulation using arrays, modular design using function calls, etc.
Generation of trade signals is accomplished using arrays of price history and system conditions (true or false). Through the use of in-built functions and self-designed algorithm, my objective is to tell "when to buy, when to sell, when to wait".
