...Never mind, I think I can adjust this to suit:
/* a sample low-level implementation of Profit-target stop in AFL: */
Buy = Cross( MACD(), Signal() );
priceatbuy=0;
for( i = 0; i < BarCount; i++ )
{
if( priceatbuy == 0 && Buy[ i ] )
priceatbuy = BuyPrice[ i ];
if( priceatbuy > 0 && SellPrice[ i ] > 1.1 * priceatbuy )
{
Sell[ i ] = 1;
SellPrice[ i ] = 1.1 * priceatbuy;
priceatbuy = 0;
}
else
Sell[ i ] = 0;
}
