Is there a way to turn a trailing stop "on" or "off" at certain
events in backtesting?
I understand that the basic command for a 35 pip trailing stop (for
example) is
applystop(2,2,0.0035,True,False)
However, I use the "powerbot" trading robot and it allows a trailing
stop to be activiated at a certain profit level. For example, you
can tell it to use a 35 pip trailing stop but only after you hit 50
pips of profit in a given trade.
How can I program that in AFL? I tried using the "if else" feature,
but it doesn't work for arrays. I tried using the iff function, but
that seems to just return a value rather than performing an action.
Thanks in advance for your help!
