I 
start off that way also, Chuck., but using Explore.

I  usually stick with 5,10 and 30 day columns.
Can, 
of course, also add corresponding columns for max profit/ loss per 
period.
May 
crib your use of a random #.

  Also 
  look at ApplyStop using number of bars option.

  I 
  use this approach often to determine if my entry method makes sense.  
  IMO, if the trade isn't profitable within five to twenty days, the entry 
  method sucks.  I frequently use a random number of days (between five and 
  thirty) to exit as another means of proving an entry 
  method.
