It 
would be a pleasure to help you out after all the help you have provided 
to the MS groups.
<SPAN 
class=934492322-30072003> 
Here 
is a code example for a stop but the same concept applies to limit 
orders;
<SPAN 
class=934492322-30072003> 
In the 
SELL ORDER box you include the conditions where you want to enter the 
order
 
<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff 
size=2>ShortORHour()*100+Minute()=1030
 
{in 
this case, I'm defining "Short" above (not shown) and telling the system to exit 
the trade if the "short" condition is met or if the time is 
1030}
<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff 
size=2> 
Then 
in with the Order type set to Stop, I enter all of the code that is 
entered  in the SELL ORDER box (just copy and paste) but instead of what I 
have listed above, I tell the system exactly what to do if "short" or the time 
condition is met.
<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff

<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff 
size=2>If(Short,ValueWhen(1,Bearfrac,ref(Low,-2)-.25),If(Hour()*100+Minute()=1030,Close,0))
 
{what 
this is saying is to exit at a certain price if the condition "short" is met and 
at the close if the time condition is met, otherwise do 
nothing.}
<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff 
size=2> 
I hope 
this is useful.  Let me know if you need any further guidance on this 
matter.

Good 
Trading,

  [EquisMetaStock Group] 8.01 EOD System Tester 
  QuestionCan someone please tell me how to set up an 
  "enter long" on the current barat a specific price. My system is based on 
  EOD data and will enter long at apredetermined price (breakout) within the 
  high/low range for the day. Idon't want to use OHLC and I am supplying the 
  price as a price spike on theentry day to the "Limit or Stop Price" box. 
  I've tried the options I cansee, I've even looking in "Help" but must be 
  looking in the wrong placebecause I can't see anything that 
  helps.I've been running the same tests using Trade Equity for years 
  without aproblem, and my understanding is that TradeSim and other third 
  party toolscan also perform this fairly basic function without too much 
  drama. What amI missingThanks.RoyTo
