Use

<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff

code.

  STOPs / Exit anybody?Good day,I want to 
  implement a simple Exit strategy, namely EXITING after 5 trading days. 
  I have created a simple strategy for backtesting: (still 
  learning):Buy =  Ref(C,-1) > Ref(C,-2)  
  AND    //buy after 2 
  up-Closes       Ref(C,-2) > 
  Ref(C,-3):       BuyPrice = 
  (Ref(C,-1);  //Buy today at yesterdays Close(Limit) 
  ----------------------------------------------------------------Now I 
  want to sell after 5 days. Went to the Backtester and Settings > 
  Stops and set the "N-Bar Stop" to 5.After doing this, I get the 
  following error message from backtester:"Missing Buy/Sell Variable 
  assignment".What am I doing 
  wrong?Thanks.WernerSend
