TJ,
The reason I introduced the complexity of using Stephane's dll in response
to Mark's question was for the case where stoplosses, profit targets, and
trailing stops are interdependent on the initial buyprice, which needs to be
constant throughout the trade in order to invoke the proper stop signal.
This goes back to our emails we (you and Anthony and I) had way back in
March of this year. Our problem was solved when Stephane wrote his
RemBuy.dll code and uploaded it onto the files section of the Yahoo groups
site. As I understand it, unless the AB coding has changed since then, AFL
cannot handle these types of stoplosses without invoking script. If Mark is
not interested in this complexity, then your ApplyStop approach is perfectly
fine. Am I right about all of this?
Al V.
