Steve,

Anything is possible if you write the code for it and Uenal Mutlu's 
ABTool provides a lot of functionality without which it would be 
difficult if not impossible to do, hell it was somewhat difficult to 
do with it.

IMHO replacing stocks is a function of the ranking process i.e. if 
something rises to a higher rank on the list then what one is holding 
then you switch into the new stock and remove the lowest rank one on 
the list but this could also be coupled with the proviso to not 
switch until one gets a sell on a particular stock.
