RE: [amibroker] Dynamic Stops

["Bob Jagow" <bjagow@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I didn't check whether fixing the error in line 4 does the trick.
Buy = Cross(C, movingAverage);
stopPrice=0;
temp1=0;
if(Buy==1) <=

Subject: [amibroker] Dynamic Stops

I want to set a stop on a buy signal calculated using one formula and
then change the the stop on subsequent bars using another formula. I
have tried the following:

Buy = Cross(C, movingAverage);
stopPrice=0;
temp1=0;
if(Buy=1)
        {
                stopPrice=BuyPrice-(mmstp*exitAtr);
        }
                else
                        {
                                temp1 =(High - (stpParmA *exitAtr)) -
stopPrice;
                                if (temp1[i] > 0.0)
                                        {
                                                stopPrice=stopPrice +
(stpParmB*temp1);
                                        }
                                else
                                        {
                                                stopPrice=stopPrice;
                                        }
                        }
This does not work. The initial stop is set OK but the stops on
subsequent bars are not changed.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Best regards,

Drew Yallop
