DJ, I think I can help with one part of your question. You need to
have two separate functions for long and short stop losses.
Here's my code:
Lpos=Flip(Buy,Sell);
Spos=Flip(Short,Cover);
LSL=3;//Optimize("LongStopLoss",3,3,4.5,.10);
SSL=4.7;//Optimize("ShortStopLoss",5,4.5,5,.10);
SL=IIf(Lpos,LSL,IIf(Spos,SSL,0));
ApplyStop(0,1,SL,2);
As you can see the amount used for this stop loss depends on whether
the trade was long or short. Hope this helps somewhat! Sorry I
cannot be of more help with your other ?'s.
