Topic: Allow user-range for Stop Loss / Take Profit during Generating

It would be great to see an option when generating new strategies in which range to allow the Stop Loss / Take Profit.

So for example one could say: "Generate a new strategy but allow the Stop Loss only between 5 and 15 pips and the Take Profit between 5 and 100 Pips". Currently it seems to use the range 5 to 5000 for both of these values.

Also it would be great to being able to have access to those parameters in the Optimizer without using the Stop Limit indicator as closing logic.
