New to TS2.5 and blown away by the power of this software.  I am slowly getting up to speed on the language and have made good progress but having a difficult time wrapping my head around how to place a protective stop at the lowest low for the 2-days proceeding entry. 

I am a firm believer in "just figure it out" but after 3 days of struggling with what seems like a simple thing, I'm giving up.  Thanks for any help.

If the trades are not that long you can use barsinceentry as a lookback to get the lowest low over past 2 bars relative to the entry day

If barsinceentry>0 then

ExitLong("","",1,Lowest(Low,2,barssinceentry-1),stop,day)

end if

We have a new version coming up with let's you access entry day values by signal na,name. You can also use barssinceentryplus(SignalName) to do it by signal name.
