Hey, I hope you had a great weekend. I am stuck and need some guidance, please. I set the Trading system Based on Alert Condition to the settings that are recommended in the help documentation. The syntax appears symbol enough. =CROSSFROMVELOW(C, ID1.SG7) Everything is great, no errors in the formula. The system is marking the entries and exit's and the signals are showing. I have chart trade mode on and can see my NPL However, the data is not recording in the trading activity section under stats. I am not sure what I am doing wrong where the system is capturing those trades for further analysis? I am also struggling to get "Trade Management by the study" to work? It also has not been capturing the data. At first, I thought maybe the chart settings were incorrect and I duplicated another chart that is working correctly, cleared the studies, wrote new formulas and then nothing on the activity log. At this point I am kind of lost any guidance would be greatly helpful. I have been digging through the appropriate documentation but must be missing something.

Okay, got the study to start working!!! What is the best methods to step stops with? for example, I am using Trade management by study. Buy entry on ibh break CROSSFROMBELOW(C, ID1.SG6) BUY EXIT ON IBH 1.3 CROSSFROMBELOW(C, ID1.SG7) Now once I am entered how do I set the stop so if IBL is taken out that I am flat on the position? would it be SETTING----> BUY EXIT CROSSFROMABOVE(C, ID1.SG9)
