[amibroker] backtesting stop and trail profit reliability

["loveyourenemynow" <loveyourenemynow@xxxxxxxx>]

HI,

I am bactesting a system using the stop profit of the AFL function
applystop.
I use the amount mode and set the amount to 0.0001, but several stop
profit trades are executed with an unrealistic 0.0002 profit.
What could be the cause?

I have also tried to use the trail stop but I think the results are
unreliable for very small trailing amounts if the intraday data has
low resolution like 1 minute and higher.
Can anyone confirm it?


Thanks

Enea
