Schwab that if I enter/change a sell stop after 4:00PM Eastern, it's assumed to
be a post-split price if the stock is splitting the next day. I didn't know
this, and have been burned by it on the recent splits of MOLX, VRTS, and ITWO.
The stocks were sold the day of the split, as the price opened far below
stop.</SPAN></SPAN></FONT></FONT></FONT></DIV>

anyone have a broker that would do a better job of handling sell stops? I would
expect that as I enter or modify a sell stop order, I'd get some notification
that the stock is splitting and that I should make sure my stop price reflects
this.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

Perhaps I'm misunderstanding your question, but if you describe "rising"
using the ">" operator, as in Mov(C,21,E) > Ref(Mov(C,21,E), -5) for
example, couldn't you describe "isn't rising" using the "<=" operator, as
in ADX(13) <= Ref(ADX(13), -5)?
Hope this helps.
