The condition you use is HHV Equity() in last 60 days. This means 
you look into the future and indeed does not work for my problem.
I aim to stop trading futures any particular day after a certain 
profit or loss is reached.
I tried to work with the equity() function but can't get my fingers 
under it. Don't know how to use the new equity() position after buy 
or short or sell or cover in the subsequent buy/short/sell/cover 
rule.
