g I see red sell arrows, green buy signals and lime buy arrows.
If I understand you correctly you want to plot regular sells and applystops on the charts. See Help files on Applystops. If you need to use Plotshapes to show your Applystop exits you need to include Equity(1) after your Applystops and before your Plotshapes lines. Also, use the Plotshapes ( ......, offset ); to place your Sell arrow above the inbuilt red sell arrow. PlotShapes( ShapeS, IIf( Sell, colorPink, Null), 0 , H, -30); Also, you can try specifying which Applystop was hit: PlotShapes( IIf(Sell ==2, shapeDigit2, shapeNone),colorRed, 0, h, 40); // etc See also some notes I put together in the AB Backtester Basics.doc in the file section: Checking the signals on the charts.
