[amibroker] Re: How to show Stops (ApplyStops) in Explore?

Yup, I indeed have equity(1), and I have also tried equity(1,0).
The problem is that when I do a backtest the output shows the trailing
stop activating by showing Long (trail) in the Trade column. However,
when I use Explore, the trail doesn't shows up. I have the columns in
explore and I can sometimes see Sells with a value of 4, however, I do
not see all of them. At least for today, there is a trade that appears
to have hit the trailing stop via backtest but doesn't show up via
Explore.

comments.  It assigns a value to the stop depending on the type of
applystop chosen (e.g., trailing = 4).  A trailing sell stop would = 4
when hit and another column in exploration could be used to display
the event (e.g, addcolumn(sell, "sell") producing 0 and 4 output).
