Something is "aware" on the bar of entry... why not my exits??? When I add
print statements to the system code and see how MarketPosition and EntryPrice
are changing, it's clear that these are "aware" on the entry bar. If MP changes
to 1 (eg) and EP is active on the entry bar it seems like the stops should be
active also. Could you explain further?

Why not? What's the difference between the stops programmed in El and the
"canned" stops accessed thru the System Properties screen? Again, please
explain.
