Hi Tomasz,

I have re-read the article.
This is the simple test script I'm playing with:

GraphXSpace = 5;
SetTradeDelays(0, 0, 0, 0);
SetChartOptions(0, chartShowArrows | chartShowDates | chartWrapTitle);

arrBuyLevel = Ref(HHV(High, 3), -1);
arrSellLevel = Ref(LLV(Low, 3), -1);

// Buy and sell levels and signals (stop orders)
BuyPrice = IIf(Open > arrBuyLevel, Open, arrBuyLevel);
SellPrice = IIf(Open < arrSellLevel, Open, arrSellLevel);

Buy = (High >= arrBuyLevel && Status("barinrange"));
Sell = (Low <= arrSellLevel && Status("barinrange"));
Buy = ExRem(Buy, Sell);
Sell = ExRem(Sell, Buy);
Buy = IIf(Sell, 0, Buy);
Sell = IIf(Buy, 0, Sell);

Plot(Close, "Close", colorBlack, styleBar | styleNoTitle);

Plot(arrBuyLevel, "BuyLevel", colorGreen, styleLine | styleNoTitle);
Plot(arrSellLevel, "SellLevel", colorRed, styleLine | styleNoTitle);

PlotShapes(IIf(Buy && Status("barinrange"), shapeSmallCircle, shapeNone), colorGreen, 0, BuyPrice, 0);
PlotShapes(IIf(Sell && Status("barinrange"), shapeSmallCircle, shapeNone), colorRed, 0, SellPrice, 0);

SetBarsRequired(5, 0);

This is the screenshot if the whole ticker with an area of backtest (trade arrows are shown): Screenshot 
All I want is to work only with that part of graph that is inside the range I've specified in the backtester. Could you please explain how this can be achieved with such a simple test script ?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Roman.
