Trailing Stop Syntax?

C

Cre8UrF8

Can some one give me the syntax to use in excel for a trailing stop? Genesis's Laser platform doesn't have them so I have to use excel for trailing stops in Laser.
 
Do a search on this site. You will find a thread. I was doing for a while. From what I rember you have to turn on iterations and do a bunch of if/then statements. The problem I found was that turning on iterations while handling a lot of symbols/mkt data and usng the sheet to launch trades via an add-in really killed the CPU. Good luck.

Strategery,
