Re: [amibroker] Apply stop question

applystop (stoplosss) is desinged for the amount of dollars or percentage
below the buyprice.

so for modepoints an array you could use something like ATR(x), or straight
price like 0.5 ($0.5), these would be like writing BuyPrice-ATR(x) or
shortprice+ATR(x)
If you want to use an actual price calculated by the actual bars prices
(like cross of LLV) then you should use Sell statement
