Trailing Entry Price Testing Dialog Box

Many investors feel that once a bar pattern is found, they don’t want to enter the trade until prices have moved further in the desired direction, confirming the bar pattern. Investigator allows you to test this theory.

First, select the time period and the number of bars ago value that you want to use for testing. Next, select whether you want the price to move above or below the desired price. You also need to select whether you want the bar’s open, high, low, close, or designer value. Finally, you must enter the percent value the prices must move.

If you want the trailing entry condition re-calculated with each new bar, click on the Move Entry option.
