Omnitrader 2005 uses a fixed stop, trailing stop and reversal stop. My system is indicating a "generated stop" was used in exiting some of the trades. What is a generated stop?

Thanks,

Richard

Can you post a screen shot of where it shows this?

Odds are is actually using the stop that you want, and that when it reports it is using different terminology. (Not completely sure though.)

A generated stop is a stop produced by a system. If you look at the strategy it should show another Systems block pointing to the Order's block with one system enabled.
