change parameter from tick to price for auto breakeven and auto trail

In stop strategy window, how to change parameter from tick to price for auto breakeven and auto trail?

Hello absitrader,

Unfortunately price is not available as parameter type for stop strategies. The only two parameter types available for stop strategies is ticks and percent. You can set the parameter type in the properties for the window you're working with. Example -- SuperDom: Right Click > Properties > Parameter type to either ticks or percent.

Why is this? This seems like a necessity for trading stocks.

dr0832,

Price is essentially redundant to "ticks". For stocks: 1 tick = .01, so you can express every price value in terms of ticks. $3.57 = 357 ticks.
