Hi Dave,
Thank you for the Applystop explanation as I have struggled with the
proper use of Applystop and this helps a lot.
One more question if I may. Is it possible to have both of these
statements
ApplyStop(stopTypeLoss, stopModePoint, myStop1, 1);
ApplyStop(stopTypeProfit, stopModePoint, myStop2, 1);
In the same program without the latter overriding the former,
effectively creating a bracket trade?
Thx
Ron
