Hi.
Try ApplyStop(2,2,3*ATR(30),2,False,False);
>From help file:
ApplyStop( type, mode, amount, exitatstop, volatile =
False, ReEntryDelay = 0 )
volatile -
decides if amount (or distance) (3rd parameter) is
sampled at the trade entry and remains fixed during
the trade (Volatile = FALSE - old behaviour) or if can
vary during the trade (Volatile = TRUE) (allows single
line Chandelier exit implementation)
