I'm not using global server. I failed to mention that. Sorry. Flat files
out of a directory on my hard drive... You know, the old 3rd party
routine...

I'm not stepping through what you are doing , but, I know that you can make
a permanent change of this I think in your GS. Check help if you have to.

: Thanks, Jim. I changed the value to 1 to test (was 125), and now the
prices
: are dead-on. Great.
:
: I use CSI daily data, and the values always reset back to 125 when I
advance
: back and forth through my symbol lists... (I like WorkSpace assistant and
: how it handles Symbol lists in a batch fashion) So, is there a registry
: setting or something that controls the default value for MinMove? Some
: other circumvention?
:
: Thanks again,

: I would check the algorithm for it. Check the point value of your
contracts

: related. Also commissions and slippage are added in. Just a WAG.

: 12.5,
: : I say 2, it says 2.5 ... Not cool. MMS is screwed up as well.

: : : Dearest list --
: : :
: : : I've got a signal that has profit targets that can be hit on the same
: bar
: : as
: : : entry... Daily data. For example, I use a market order for entry, and
: : : Target -
: : : SetStopPosition;
: : : SetProfitTarget(100);
: : :
: : : TS2000i takes me out at $125, not $100.
: : :
: : : I also tried -
: : : SetStopContract;
: : : SetProfitTarget(1);
: : : Takes me out at 1.25 points. Set the Target to 2 and get out at 2.5
: : points.
: : : Try .8, get 1.25 ...
: : :
: : : I even cobbled together a couple of Omega's generic entry sinals with
: : : Stoploss and Profit target signals... Still happens. Reinstalled
: : : Tradestation. Still happens.
: : :
: : : Establishing orders on subsequent bars after entry is no problem, but
I
: : need
: : : to have the backtesting work properly on the bar of entry. Does this
: : happen
: : : to anyone else? How can I fix or circumvent?
