Re: [amibroker] ATR Trailing stop - only move higher possible ?

[Thomas Z <tzg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Jim and Graham,

thank you, however i mean the build-in stop.
I can use the build-in stop as described in the amibroker manual, see below.
But it seems that the stop also goes down when the result of 3*ATR(14) changes.


/* single-line implementation of Chandelier exit */
ApplyStop(stopTypeTrailing, stopModePoint, 3*ATR(14), True, True );

    Hello,

i am trying the applystop function with the trailstop.

However i have noted that the stop goes down on a long
position whenthe ATR(10) changes.
Isn't it possible to let it only rise ? I really don't
like to move mystop down.


fast = EMA(C,3); slow = EMA(C,10);
Buy=Cross(fast,slow); Sell=Cross(slow,fast);

stop_amount = 2*ATR(10);
ApplyStop(stopTypeTrailing,stopModePoint,stop_amount,exitatstop=1,volatile=True,ReEntryDelay=0);

Equity(1,0);
inLong = Ref(Flip(Buy,Sell),-1);

Plot(C,"C",1,128);
Plot(IIf(inlong,HHV(H,BarsSince(inlong))-2*ATR(10),-1e10),"",6,1);
PlotShapes(shapeSquare*(Sell==4),colorRed,0,SellPrice,0);
