Yes, I see what you are saying. On 17 Jan 2003 the system bought at the
close of 25.3047 but it also claimed to have executed a profit target exit
of 25.912 which had to have occurred before the buy. I am not surprised
those wild numbers were not valid. I think we can also say that immediate
stop activation can only be used with entry on open when using EOD data.
OK, so we turn off immediate activation of stops so they become effective
the following day. I'll do a couple of runs with that setup and see what
happens.
Thanks for pointing out the error.
Cheers
Sid
