Thank
you for you input - your code looks excellent - I will try it out. I must
admit that I have not tried to use the code Equis supplied as of
yet.

I think the formula that Equis gave you will get
you just the high of the entry day.
For a trailing chandelier, that is, updated
with each new high, you probably want:
ARC=3; {for example}
BC={Buy Condition};
C<=HighestSince(1, BC, H) -
ARC*atr(7);

Metastock Fixed Trailing Stop Loss to go along with Trade Sim?
I
wanted to to set a Chandelier Exit in the Enhanced System Tester EOD and
received the following assistance from Equis Inter'l. Metastock seems to
make it very hard to establish easily the Position Entry Date. Hope the
undermentioned doesn't add to the confusion.

Sir, <FONT face=Arial
size=2> you will have to use the
valuewhen function. It would look like
: <FONT face=Arial
size=2>BC:={buy condition}; <FONT face=Arial
size=2>Valuewhen(1,BC,H)
Hope this helps <FONT face=Arial

Hi, <FONT face=Arial
size=2> My Customer Number is:
70395. <FONT face=Arial
size=2>I am running MetaStock 8.01 EOD. I would like to write a rule that
will trigger an exit in the Enhanced System Tester if the Close falls below
say 3 * ATR(7) from the High since entry of the trade. I can't see a
Simulation function that will give me the Position High Price. Is it
possible for you to help me with this, I am hoping to use it in a TA Society
presentation later this week and to provide the hard code rather than just
the concept of a "Chandelier Exit" would add credibility.
TIA.

Metastock Fixed Trailing Stop Loss to go along with Trade
Sim?Does anyone here know how to set up a fixed
trailing stop loss in ametastock exploration (8.0 End of Day) that
will work with trade Sim?I've found a formula on the net but not
being a programmer don'treally understand it or how to work it into a
set up so that it workswith Trade SimIf(cum(1)=1,{then}
Close,{else} If((C*1.1) <= PREV,{then}(C*1.1),{else}
PREV)); I'm using two triggers. But I've got no idea of how
a fixed trailingstop loss would be set up. Perhaps as a trailing
band (similar to thevolatility and standard diviation stops) so the
"volatility" for theband could be the fixed trailing stop loss
forumula? I would imagine the set up might work as below but
if anyone knows forsure, has done a fixed trailing stop, I'd love to
know how you did it.Trigger1:= (trade system exit
conditions);Volatility:= (trailing stop loss
formula?);BandLong:=ExtFml("TradeSim.TrailingStop",Trigger,Long,Volatility,CLOSE,ExitTrigger:=
