Trading System Tests. I haven't tried the system testing feature of 4.x yet, but I found a bug in the system testing feature of 3.25 that probably carries over to 4.x.

The trailing stop feature is locked out on the day of the entry, but can activate on the following day. When it does this, the exit occurs at the high. I call this a bug, because how do you know when the high occurs? There is no way to exit on tomorrow's high. The program should default to an exit at the close or on the day after open or close, that is, at some time in the future after the trailing stop is triggered.
