Re: Built in ATR stops

I've looked at it and am not sure I completely understand it. If a stock
spikes up your ATR exit is baseed upon the new high. The ATRs a calculated
downward. It can then give you a rather premature exit. From what I see of
the code it bases the new exit on the high from the most recent bar. When
this high is lower, it can mean a lower exit. The only reason it doesn't go
much lower is that the Average True Range is getting smaller. I haven't
broken it down but it is a good idea to combine this exit with others.
