Try this. The 'Tr' variable initially sets to the entry pric, as given by
the 'N' variable, then to the close each time its previous value is exceeded
by 1%. The timing of the output line may be off .
Roy
{Trade 1% Move}
N:= Fml("PS Fractal Entry");{entry signal/price}
X:= Fml("PS Fractal Exit"); {independent exit}
Tr:=If(PREV<=0,N,If(C>=1.01*PREV,C,If(X>0,0,PREV)));
If(Alert(Tr=0,2)=0,Tr>ValueWhen(2,1,Tr),0);
