The 
different values you see are:
<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff 
size=2> 
Sell 
== 1   Sell generated by other than Applystop
Sell 
== 2   Stopped out by max. loss
Sell 
== 3   Stopped out by profit targetSell == 4   Stopped 
out by trailing stop
Have 
you run a backtest and seen and entry in the trade column like: "Short (max 
loss)"?
<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff 
size=2> 
The 
max loss is there because AB detected a 2 in the Sell array.

size=2>d

  Confused ...
  Hi folks - 
   
  I found this code in the help file: <FONT 
  face="Times New Roman" size=3>Plot(Sell==4,"ApplyStop 
  Sell",colorRed,1|styleOwnScale);
  <FONT face="Times New Roman" 
  size=3> 
  I thought 
  buy/sell/cover/short could only have 0 or 1 values. I assume if sell can have 
  value 4 cover can too, and also 2 and 3 ... what do these values mean? I 
  assume 1 is a trading system defined stop, 4 must me applystop ... but 2 and 
  3?
   
  Thanks
