I would like to more fully understand the scope and/or limitations of the "Allow Opposite Entry with Opposing Position" YES input in the Spreadsheet Trading System Study. Does that mean(allow for) entering a trade(s) in the direction opposite an existing trade? It sure sounds like that is exactly what it means. For example, if I wish to set up a backtest which triggers multiple entries based on/triggered by certain Alert conditions both long and short, is each long/short entry with an Attached order allowed to run to completion (either stopped out or targets hit) autonomously? Or would that scheme just confuse the system and apply buys/sells in a "criss-cross" type fashioned, all intermingled?? For that matter, in a similar vein, does the "Allow Multiple Entries in Same Direction" input YES allow each trade to run autonomously to completion as per Attached Order?
