Does there exist at all the ability within ASCIL whereby I have my own Enumerated Type e.g.

  enum TradingState {
    IS_LONG_WITHOUT_STOP=0,
    IS_LONG_WITH_STOP_BUT_HAS_NO_INTERNAL_STOPID,
    IS_LONG_WITH_UNMATCHING_STOP_WITH_INTERNAL_STOPID,
    IS_LONG_WITH_MATCHING_STOP_WAITING_TO_ADD,

    //IS_LONG_WITH_UNATTACHED_STOP, IS_LONG_WITHOUT_STOP,
    //IS_SHORT_WITH_ATTACHED_STOP, IS_SHORT_WITH_UNATTACHED_STOP, IS_SHORT_WITHOUT_STOP,
    IS_FLAT_WITHOUT_WORKING_ORDERS,
    IS_FLAT_WITH_WORKING_ORDERS,

    IS_LONG_WAITING_TO_ADD, //IS_SHORT_WAITING_TO_ADD,

    WAITING_FOR_BROKER,
    BROKER_RESPONDED,

    UNHANDLED_STATE
  };

and I can assign a variable of this type to a Persistent Variable to keep track of my system state?

Yes of course. Just set the enumeration type to be an integer and just simply cast it to an integer when using it with the persistent variable functions.
