[amibroker] Applystop again

Hello Usergroup,

I read dozens of mails of this group about this but it seems my 
applystop-problem has not been discussed before.

I want to backtest a strategy in non-futures-mode where 5% of the 
capital is beeing used to open a position and profit-target-stops 
and Stop-Loss are executed after a certain amount, say 1000 as 
profit and 700 as loss is reached for the whole position.

Is there an easy way to calculate the number of shares beeing bought 
or shorted? Results of my calculation 
(NumberOfShares=investment/BuyPrice;) are always different from the 
numbers the backtester calculates.

Has anyone coded the same strategy and would like to help me with 
the snippet of code that I need for axecuting the stops?

Thank you in advance
enzo
