Hi,

Some questions:

1) Is this equivalent to Stephane's Exit suggestion:

    Sell=0; // to exit via a stop condition instead of 'normally'
    ApplyStop(stopTypeNBar,stopModeBars,5,0);//to exit after 5 bars

?

2) If so, are these the correct Settings, when using EOD data:

    ActivateStopsImmediately turned OFF
    Trade delays set to zero
    Trade price set to Close

?

thanks,

-john

Buy2=C>ref(c,-1)*1.03;
Buy=Buy1 and Buy2;
sell=ref(exremspan(Buy,5),-5);
