Hello Christian,

My impression is that AB doesn't seem to allow this 'off the shelf'.
I used to do this type of thing quite easily in Metastock (even if it did take 
all week).

I had a quick look at this the other day because I wanted to post some code for 
Sanjay (I wanted to demo the different outcomes that we  get from trials of 
typical stops with benchmarking type entries e.g. random entries).

I got up to looking at ApplyStop ... at the bottom of the AFL reference for AS 
Corey Saxe talks about use equity() and AS together to view the stops (I think 
Corey is stil around).

I didn't find it all that palatable so I moved on but it might be worth a look.

If you try it and it works out for you could you please post back and let me 
know.
Meanwhile I am working on a custom soution that I will post if I get it all 
going nicely.
