I am trying to find a way to record the highest price the stock will reach AFTER the position is entered. This is to identify that if a stock goes above a specific threshold, a value will become TRUE and new conditions will be used for further entry/exit. What is the best way to record the prices after entry to find the highest, or is there an easier function to use?

Thanks

This is the MFE value you are referring to.

Thanks for explaining. I'm trying to find an example of strategy code that includes MFE since there aren't a lot of descriptions of how to input it into a strategy. Do you have one or know of a place to look?

Thanks again for your help.
