Patrick, the problem with having a second latch referencing the first
one (and when the exit needs to reference the entry signal), is this:
if the first entry-based exit is triggered, the first latch will
filter-out re-entry signals needed by the 2nd trade latch.
I only know of PREV-based code to get around this self-referencing
problem, although there maybe a solution lurking in there somewhere
with Richard Dale's Adv Trailing Stop dll.
