Thanks Graham
I have tried this.
However then the solution TJ gave me under Message number 119190 cannot
be used it seems:
ApplyStop(stopTypeLoss,stopModePoint, IIf(Buy,0.8 ,2.4) ,1,False,0);// =2
returns this error:
Error 43: Variable stops are not supported in Rotational and Raw
backtest modes.
Are there any other settings I can try?
Regards
