Do you want to use a Stop for the entry order?

You can certainly use a constant in the formula. Can you give us an example of what type of variable you would want to use?

for stop order= example : IF CLOSE[-1] >high[-2] then buy stop order at High[-1]

for variable: the low of every bar just passed through for a trailing stop (in hypothesis of a long trade)
for constant: set the distance from the entry price to the low of the entry bar for example
