[amibroker] Re: Test to see maxlosspercent has been met CBI

I've only had a quick glance through your code, but it looks like
you're testing for the profit being greater than 15%, not the loss.

I think the sell signal generated by ApplyStop should include reason
code 1 for maximum loss. Try checking that.
