I can't image ever staying in a 
(real) position with such a tight stop or is this just 
theoretical?

%
  Thanks for the response Joe,I was able to optimize the 
  stop using %, but in a system test(not optimizing the stop), I was not 
  able to set the stop to less than 1%.In fact if I set it to 0.51 to 0.99% 
  it automatically reverts to 1.00%.  And if I set it to <0.50% it 
  automatically reverts to 0.00%!Anyone try 
  this?Bob--- In <A
