Trailing Stop Syntax?

Discussion in 'Trading Software' started by Cre8UrF8, Sep 16, 2005.

  1. Can some one give me the syntax to use in excel for a trailing stop? Genesis's Laser platform doesn't have them so I have to use excel for trailing stops in Laser.

  3. Do a search on this site. You will find a thread. I was doing for a while. From what I rember you have to turn on iterations and do a bunch of if/then statements. The problem I found was that turning on iterations while handling a lot of symbols/mkt data and usng the sheet to launch trades via an add-in really killed the CPU. Good luck.

    I would like to know as well. Even regular stops would help.
