hi,

I suggest reading the manual once more. Here I give a tip:

// example of the price you want to exit
stopProfitPrice = 10;
stopLossPrice = 5;

// calculate the sell and cover signals using Applystop
ApplyStop(stopTypeProfit,stopModePoint,stopProfitPrice,ExitAtStop = 
1,Volatile = False, ReentryDelay = 1 );
ApplyStop(stopTypeLoss,stopModePoint,stopLossPrice,ExitAtStop = 
1,Volatile = False, ReentryDelay = 1 );

TJ points out that this can best be written as:
// calculate the sell and cover signals using Applystop
ApplyStop(stopTypeProfit,stopModePoint,stopProfitPrice,1,False,1 );
ApplyStop(stopTypeLoss,stopModePoint,stopLossPrice,1,False, 1 );

further you need to have a look at the Settings windows inside the 
Automatic Analysis window. You want to "Activate Stops Immediately" 
and "Allow same bar exit"

rgds, Ed
