I guess if I just whited out everything I would not notice
discrepancies as well.
I will try to explain myself again
The exitprice acts like a trailing stop which is what it should do,
and the sell signal occurs when the price crosses below the exitprice.
The exitprice is based on the highest value of a variable after the
buy signal occurs. Any additional UNWANTED buy signals should be
removed by exrem or equity.
But when a variable like Exit as I have shown that is based on values
since a buy signal are not changed to just the first buy signal. They
keep being affected by the subsequent extra buy signals.
In the explore rersults below I have listed the buy/sell signals and
the Exitprice. The last column is a check on where the exitprice
dropped without an actual buy, just a buy that was exremmed. See
20/09/2004.
