exit patterns, not 138. the existing range of values should do fine, if my 
reverse engineering is correct.

  <SPAN 
  class=570565514-17112003>if so, it's too bad that more values aren't 
  available. that probably seems like a crazy thing to want, but I actually 
  have a need for at least 150.

  <SPAN 
  class=570565514-17112003>I'm looking into using the candlestick exploration 
  code in the library as an exit method. I wanted to know which patterns 
  actually got hit, and how profitable they each were given the entry signals 
  I'm using. there are 138 exit patterns in the file, each of which ideally 
  would be assigned a unique number, plus some other non-candle exits I'd like 
  to track.

  <SPAN

  if it's easy, expanding that available range would be 
  great.

      backtester and the only change mentioned in this area is that the new 
      backtester now does it.

      >I'd 
        like to know which of a number of different sell conditions get hit in 
        abacktest. I thought I remembered that you could set Sell to any 
        number abovesomething like 6, and that number would show in the 
        backtester trade list,where "Long (trailing)" etc shows for the 
        built in exit types.I can't get this to work, and I can't 
        remember where I saw the details aboutit. I've searched the User 
        Guide, no joy.can someone remind me how this works, or better 
        yet, where to find info onit?also, does this work in the new 
        backtester as well as the old one? (I'vetried both without 
        success.)thanks,dave
