Be aware that the key elements of the turtle trading system are based in
portfolio management, and are therefore not programmable in Metastock (or in
any other system tester that I am aware of). Positions are sized by
relative volatility, and you need to put together rules as to what to trade
when you have more signals than capital.

Hi
Could anyone please offer advice w.r.t. Metastock Code for the Turtle
Trading System. (The complete system rules can be downloaded from
www.originalturtles.org/docs/turtlerules.pdf)
Briefly, one system included in the rules is as follows:
Enter on 55 day breakout, exiting on a 20 day breakout in the
opposite direction (if entered long then exit on 20 day short
breakout).
Stops : Stop is set at 2N.
N = ((ATR(19) + last days ATR)/ 20
{Basically 2 X 20 period Exponential Average True Ranges}
Pyramiding: A maximum of 4 extra units are added when in the position
moves in your favour in the following manner: For each 1/2 N move
after initial entry, add 1 unit. All existing stops are then moved to
the same position as the most recent unit's stop, whereafter they
remain fixed and do not form trailinng stops.
Regards
Dieter
