I have the below exit conditions in the spreadsheet. It is a simple trailing by 2 bars after the entry bar is closed. But about half of the time, the trade is closed as soon as the entry bar is closed. Today is an example. My entry was executed on 9:30 bar, but as soon as the 9:30 bar is closed, the trade is closed. Buy Stop =AND(AND(AND($J$8 > 0, A3 > J42), J41 > A3),(E3 < MIN(D4, D5))) Sell Stop =AND(AND(AND($J$8 < 0, A3 > J42), J41 > A3),(E3 > MAX(C4, C5))) I am using version 2175.

Just like J8, you need to use absolute references to cells J41 and J42: Buy Stop =AND(AND(AND($J$8 > 0, A3 > $J$42), $J$41 > A3),(E3 < MIN(D4, D5))) Sell Stop =AND(AND(AND($J$8 < 0, A3 > $J$42), $J$41 > A3),(E3 > MAX(C4, C5)))
