[amibroker] Another dumb newbie question - checking the high price

["mikelaurataylor" <mikelaurataylor@xxxxxxxxx>]

Assume that I have created a system that issues a buy order as I'm 
expecting it to go up, at which point I'll issue the sell.

How would I go about adding a condition in the system that ends up 
creating a stop order in case I'm wrong.   

For instance, suppose I want to sell if the price drops .50 below 
the buy.    I figure I can change my sell formula to be:

sell =  (the original sell forumla)  OR  (if current price < buy 
price - .50)

I just don't know how to write the 2nd part of this (if current 
price < buy price - .50).   I think I could get the rest but I'm not 
sure what to use to identify the buy price.

Thanks again.  Hopefully I'll be helping answer questions soon!

Mike
