Calm down...
A couple of things... if you want to have a shot at me ... cool ... I don't
have a problem with that. But I don't think you were right and I wanted to
ask the list what questions are acceptable? Because (I believe) you had a
problem with me asking for help... otherwise why would you have sent the
original email that was no help to anyone?
As for not describing what I wanted to achieve... Look inside the comment
brackets - that's what I want to achieve.
Just to be clear, my stop idea is this:- I am in a long position, So every
day I look at the chart and find the bar that has the highest close and I
label that bar1. I then go back 2 bars (but I want this as an input called
lookback so I can vary it) and find the lowest low. My exit on my long
position is now at that low.
Of course I want someone to code this for me as I have no idea where to
start!!! Even if someone doesn't want to code it for me maybe they may put
me on the right track.
As for the Marvin the Mindreader comment - I also have the movie Wall
Street :-)
An exit that it the lowest low would have to resemble some sort of trailing
stop - wouldn't it?
Mate, seriously if you didn't want to help why reply with crap? Both your
shot at me and my reply serves no good for anyone. So if you can -
fantastic help me out. If not... don't waste your time or my time by
replying with comments that help no one.
Regards,
Paul

You take an email sent to you in private public. Very courteous of
you. Those who are incline to help you in private will now do it in
public or not at all.

That's what this list is for.

You've put up some codes in a statement block. You did not describe
what you want to accomplish or what you want want to achieve.
Therefore, people can read your mind and know exactly what you want
to do... All you want is for us to code an exit you have yet to
specify but because we can read your mind, we can do it for you like
Marvin the Mindreader.
: All I asked for was some help to code an exit. I said it was an
: exit. What other explanation do I need to provide?
What kind of exit? Profit target? Trailing stops? % risk? Floor?
Hard dollar stops? Trailing dollar stops? Time based stops? Inverted
logic stops? Accelerated stops? MAE stops?
