Hi Sierra, When using a spreadsheet for trading study i understand there are two way of setting stop/target: 1)with Trade Window setting-up bracket etc, 2) using cells j81/j80. Both these methods require the offsets to be entered in ticks. Question: is there a way to specify the stop/target at a specific price level and not as a offset value. Any insight is greatly appreciated. Thanks N |

J80 and J81 require the offset be in points, not ticks. A Trade Window config can use points or ticks, or %. Neither use the actual price. You can move a stop or target with the Trade Management by Study study, which requires the actual price, not an offset. You can calculate the actual price with a formula in a Formula Column. |
