stocks by gating the Buy and Short signals because the stocks thus disabled 
will not be substituted with others. Doing this you might have days you are 
not trading anything! You have to use the PositionScore to ensure you keep 
trading.

  Disable stocks with a PositionScore
  Hi Herman,
   
  Zero PositionScore only exits positions in RotationalMode.  Only 
  BUY/SELL/SHORT/COVER arrays as well as stops drive when a position is 
  replaced.
   
  However, if you do what Chuck has suggested, and use some stock-specific 
  criteria to "turn-off" and Buy or Short signals, you should get what you 
  want.
   
   
  NoPosition = You criteria that makes you not want a position in this 
  stock;
  Buy = Your buy code;
  Buy= Buy and Not NoPosition;
   
  If you are wanting to re-rank while you have your max positons on to 
  roll-up to higher-ranked stocks, you can use rotational mode.  However, 
  Fred and others have shown that this can also be done in Regular mode as 
  well.
   
  Hope this helps,
  Gary

    <FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff 
    size=2>1 ) Using a zero for PositionScore still gives me trades...in fact 
    exactly the same number of trades, but the profit drops drastically. Is 
    there another setting that has to be changed to make this work? Did you or 
    anybody else try it?

    <FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff 
    size=2>2) Disabling Buys/Short by ANDing them with a qualifier disables the 
    trades for a particluar stock but does not replace it with another in 
    your Ranking operation. So if you trade four stocks you'll be trading three, 
    or less...it messes with your portfolio trading scheme and that is not what 
    I want.
