Hi

in my strategy i use as a target the "atr"

for example, if the atr = 2.53 on S&P my target will be 1415.53 (supposed i bought at 1413.00) in the strategy analyzer during the back test... but the S&P never trade 1415.53

so my question is how to round up to the real tick above or down of the market, like 1415.50 or 1415.75, or better... round up to the nearest real tick of the market

thx
Thomas
