<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff

you to select the price field(O,H,L,C) for entry and exit and the delay for
each. In other words youcould have different delays for entry
and exit.The v8 tester does not allow different delays for entry and
exit. It usesthe same delay for all entries and exits. The v8
tester also allowsdifferent price fields for the long and short entries and
exits, which thev7 did not. But there is more you should know.... read

<SPAN
class=268390717-12052003>Joe: V8 does allow for different delays
on the entries and exits. There are two places to do this.
First on the buy/short screen you can set the "Strategic Delay(bars)" or if you
notice on the Trade Execution tab it says "Delay order Opening
XX".

<SPAN
class=268390717-12052003>With respect to your "% of margin problem", on the
system testing options screen, you may want to change the % of
Available Equity to 50% instead of 100%. This should eliminate the
problems of not having enough to enter the trade. Realistically, you
are probably never going to put 100% of your account into one trade
anyway.

<SPAN
class=268390717-12052003>When working with the system tester, I always recommend
putting the "system" into the indicator builder and plotting out the
signals in some sort of "dot" or +1 (long)/-1 (short) format so that you can
double check to make sure everything is working the way you want before
relying on the system tester's results.
