Greetings All
I am playing around with the Backtester settings in AB 5.0 to try and
finally comes to grips with all the possibilities and nuances of the
Backtester.
A nice feature in backtest Report is the Settings link to see all the
variables one has specified.
Some of these seem to be controlled by the Settings via the GUI, and
many can be overridden by the AFL SetOptions("....") functions.
I am now going through all the Applystops functions but cannot get these
to override the GUI Settings for Stops.
So for e.g. under Backtest, Settings, Stops I might have Max stop loss
set to Point value of 0.5 but if I use AFL of
Applystop(StopTypeLoss, StopModePoint, 1.2, 1);
I still have the report settings show the value set under the GUI.
This stays the same if I set the Settings via the GUI to disable the Max
stop loss.
Is there a switch somewhere to allow me to view the AFL Applystop
settings in the Report Settings output?

Compliments of the Season to all concerned.
