[amibroker] Darvas Again



PureBytes Links

Trading Reference Links

What do I need to add to place a "stop loss" line under the lowest 
part of the bottom of the box of at least -2% or might I say below 
the last low establish at the bottom of the box?

I understand, the "Darvas box" is good in an bull market or bullish 
stock but is bad to use on a bearish stock or bear market.


Thanks!
