[amibroker] Intrabar Exits at Trailing Stop loss level

Hello,

I am testing the following 20 period breakout system for intraday trading on 5 min charts.

I want to modify the following code so that it closes the position intrabar when the price touches/crosses the TSL level. (Trailing stop loss)

The current code does an SAR at the next reverse signal and often misses the correct intrabar exits. 

How should I go about doing that?

Thanks & Regards,
Amar.

no=Param( "Swing", 20, 1, 55 );
tsl_col=ParamColor( "Color", colorCycle );

res=HHV(H,no);
sup=LLV(L,no);
avd=IIf(C>Ref(res,-1),1,IIf(C<Ref(sup,-1),-1,0));
avn=ValueWhen(avd!=0,avd,1);
tsl=IIf(avn==1,sup,res);

Plot(tsl, _DEFAULT_NAME(), tsl_col, styleStaircase);

Buy=Cover=Cross(C,tsl);
Sell=Short=Cross(tsl,C);
shape=Buy*shapeUpArrow + Sell*shapeDownArrow;
PlotShapes(shape,IIf(Buy,tsl_col,tsl_col),0,IIf(Buy,Low,High));
_SECTION_END();

_SECTION_BEGIN("Price");
SetChartOptions(0,chartShowArrows|chartShowDates);
_N(Title = StrFormat("{{NAME}} - {{INTERVAL}} {{DATE}} Open %g, Hi %g, Lo %g,
Close %g (%.1f%%)
{{VALUES}}", O, H, L, C, SelectedValue( ROC( C, 1 ) ) ));
Plot( C, "Close", ParamColor("Color", colorBlack ), styleNoTitle |
ParamStyle("Style") | GetPriceStyle() );
_SECTION_END();
