Better clarification is needed for the Backtester “Customized Trading System” rules for “Stop Criteria” of the “Trailing Stop” feature. Specifically, better wording is needed for the relationship between the 2 kinds of stop criteria:

1. Trailing Stop percentage and
2. Gain or Loss percentage

The current wording says that the Gain or Loss is “optional” (provided 1 or 2 percentages are entered). New wording will to indicate that condition 1 or condition 2 will satisfy the stop, whichever occurs first. Not only should the wording be enhanced, but an enhancement of the display of the 2 features at the bottom left of the screen should be presented to eliminate any confusion about the relationship of the features.
