  <DIV><BR></DIV>Demir, 
  <P>I don't have time to validate it this morning, but you would want to use 
  the <BR>ValueWhen(...) function. 
  <P>Under the Buy tab, for example, you will have some conditions to buy. 
  <BR>Code the BUY signal into an expression that you can cut and paste into 
  your Close Position tab. 
  <P>So the form would be something like this: 
  <P><U>Close Position Tab</U><U></U> 
  <P>BuyCond:=<I>&lt;your conditions for buying expressed here&gt;;</I> 
  <BR>Close&gt;=1.05*(ValueWhen(1,BuyCond,C) 
  <P>Please realize that your choice of entry points, delay, and entry at Open 
  or Close of bar under Options... will affect the ultimate exit 
  percentage.&nbsp; (i.e. You won't exit at the exact 105% price, but rather on 
  the Open or Close (or H or L) of the bar or bar following.)
