  <DIV><SPAN class=860052722-10042000>Does anybody know a way how to test a 
  system on MULTIPLE SECURITIES in MS.&nbsp; The system enters&nbsp;with a stop 
  order and thus NOT at open or close !&nbsp;And would like to fine-tune my 
  exits through optimisation.&nbsp; I'm getting pretty desperate, I've been 
  waiting for some years now hoping MS would add simple features like 
  these.&nbsp; So if anybody has a suggestion I like to hear it.&nbsp; I can't 
  believe that this is not possible in MS and don't you guys are in need for 
  such features ?&nbsp; This I can't believe that nobody complained until now, 
  or is MS for average to beginning traders/investors and should I look for an 
  other program.&nbsp; What about Supercharts, is this possible in 
  Supercharts.&nbsp; </SPAN></DIV>
