I need to develop a multiple (3 to 4) stop loss modification scheme and have ventured as far as tweaking a Wizard generated strategy using Josh's Sample Price Modification (thanks Josh) which gives me a hard coded breakeven and 1 variable stop loss/target. I need to have a 3 to 4 variable stop loss strategy where the stops are user defined. I would like the exit to be a stop that is hit, not necessarily a target.
Now some questions.
What calls are required in Variables, Initialize, OnBarUpdate and Properties methods to accomplish this if it is in fact doable?
I get that the stop loss order handling must go from entry, to flat to new entry, and a Stop Loss and Target are submitted OCO at entry, does this mean ALL modified Stop Losses have to be accompanied with a target exit so as to cancel the other? If this is not the case, then how is the resting stop dealt with when a modified stop loss is submitted to an already open position?
Same questions for the step modification of Trailing Stop.
