When writing the system test, on the Buy Order tab (and the Sell
Short Order Tab if the system is to include short trades), set
the "Strategic Delay (Bars)" to 1 day. Then click the Stops tab.
Mark the Inactivity Minimum Change stop for both longs and shorts.
Select points for the method. Set the minimum change to 999 and the
periods to 0. Finally, when starting the simulation, click
the "More" button on the System Testing Options page. Click the
Trade Execution tab and uncheck Realistic Market Prices. Set the Buy
Price and the Sell Short Price to Open. Set the Sell Price and the
Buy to Cover Price to close. Make sure the Delay Order Opening to 0
and click Okay. When you run the test, the system will enter a trade
and then be able to exit it on the same bar.
