Dear Expert Community, I began trying to code what I naively thought was going to be a simple & short piece of code. An Entry / Exit system with an ATR trailing stop loss. Once back tested, a system plot on a chart reveals exit and entry signals on the same day which is not ideal. A search of the forum took me to the Clean Signals code on http://www.metastocktool...aStock/TradeSignals.txt. Which quite simply I do not understand. So I'm here again to ask for a little help please. I have 3 questions: 1) Is the following Clean Signals code necessary or am I doing something wrong.. ? 2) Should the Clean Signals code be placed in both the Buy and Sell Order tabs of the System Editor? 3) How do I include within the clean signals code Exits from a "Stoplong"? 4) Any other guidance/correction appreciated... {===================================================} Entry:= Entry Conditions; Exit:= Exit Conditions; {AdvancedStoploss from http://www.tradernexus.com/} Stoplong:=C < ExtFml("AdvancedStop.StopLong",entry,c-2*ATR(20),0,c-2*ATR(20),0,0,0,0); Exit OR Stoplong; { Clean signals to stop buy & sell on same day!? Code snippet taken from http://www.metastocktool...taStock/TradeSignals.txt } Init:=Cum(entry+exit>-1)=1; entryInit:=Cum(entry)=1; flag:=BarsSince(Init OR entry) <barsSince(Init OR exit)+entryInit; signals:=(entryInit AND Alert(entryInit=0,2) OR flag AND Alert(flag=0,2)) -(flag=0 AND Alert(flag,2)); binary:=ValueWhen(1,signals0,signals); {===================================================} Many thanks for your time, Andrew

I cannot understand why "Stoplong:=" text above is not being displayed: Should read: {AdvancedStoploss from http://www.tradernexus.com/} Stoplong:=C < ExtFml("AdvancedStop.StopLong",entry,c-2*ATR(20),0,c-2*ATR(20),0,0,0,0);
