By monthly stop do you mean to exit all open positions on the last day of the month?

Hi Jim,

What I mean is, example if the monthly stop is 2k, then if the system loses 2k it shuts off for the rest of the month. I need this as a seperate strategy. If anyone could post the code would be greatly appreciated.

I did not test this, but I think it should work.

 
Code
                            
if month(d)<>month(d[1]) then begin
startofmonth
=netprofit;
allowtrading=true;
end;

if 
netprofit<startofmonth-MyMonthlyStop then begin
// exit your positions here
allowtrading=false;
end;

if 
allowtrading then begin
// your entries here
end
