I have only checked Exit at the Stop Price by looking at trade-by-trade
losses. Occaisionally, the Max Loss stop level, for example, will be
exceeded, but I've always attributed that to opening gaps (so it exits at
the first available price).  You've now given me reason to doubt.  Can you
investigate further?
