Trailing Stop using wizard

[BigDog008]

I can't seem to get the trailing stop to work in the strategy wizard...

I want to do a 2% trailing stop, but when i start back testing it, i see a loss of say 6% on a single trade pop up... any ideas?

[BigDog008]

anyone?

I tried re-doing my entire model, made sure I put a trailing stop with a stop loss trigger of 2%... and I don't see it working in some instances (-6% in one case)

Hi BigDog008 - how did you input your 2% TrailStop value? You want to use 0.02 for this - http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/H...TrailStop.html

I have the same problem, using either price or %. The price to enter is the Wizard is the actual price, or is the value of the trail? (say the price of the stock at bar close is $10, but the trail I want is $0.05).

I missed this thread and just opened a new one, "Trailing Stop using Strategy Wizard" where I attached the respective files. Perhaps someone can take a look and tell me what I did wrong.

Thanks.
