Hi Tomasz,
Thanks for your quick reply, looks simple compared to the Metastock
code!
Is it possible to place this trailing stop onto the MAIN price chart?
I had a look at ApplyStop in the manual and at the bottom of the page it
has:
ApplyStop( stopTypeTrailing, stopModePoint, 2*ATR(10), True, True );
Equity(1); // THIS EVALUATES STOPS
Plot(Sell=4,"ApplyStop Sell",colorRed,1|styleOwnScale);
I placed the above in the indicator builder but doesn't seem to work.
Sorry if this is a really basic question, but I have looked through the
manual. Maybe I have to take off my Metastock head ! :-)
Cheers, Glenn
