I am a new TS 2.5 user and I wondered why I am unable to get ProtectiveDollarStop to work. Are there any examples that I can refer to. An example of a script for a session and a tradeplan would steer me in the right direction. I am still awaiting my manuals from the US and as such I have no idea if there are references to usage in these. Many thanks Owen

Dim MinMove
MinMove=GetActiveMinMove()

Sell("ChanSell",1,Lowest(Low,SLen,0)-MinMove,STOP,DAY)
protectivedollarstop("",ProStop,1)
End Sub

 Here an example.  The first argument is the signal to exit, "" means all. It not the signal name these are prenamed so they can be identified as dollar stops.

Thanks Murray that worked fine. I understand the use of the word signal now. Is this usage of signal consistent throughout TS? Owen

Yes
