Thanks Graham.

OK cheers, I think that will take a bit of learning!

I did try this but it is simply the wrong way to do it I think:

Intrade        = Flip(Buy,Sell);
numberofshares = C / (Equity() * (PositionSize * -1) / 100);
BarByBar       = IIf(Intrade, C * numberofshares, Null);
AddToComposite(BarByBar, "~BarByBar", "C");

AddColumn(Equity()*PositionSize*-1/100,"BuyValue",1.3,colorIndigo,
colorYellow);
AddColumn(BarByBar ,"BarByBar ",1.3,colorIndigo,colorYellow);
AddColumn(numberofshares ,"numberofshares ",1.3,colorIndigo,
colorYellow);

I'm getting errors in the result list.

Thanks
