			<description><![CDATA[<p>Fxwinner, thanks.&nbsp; I appreciate the link.</p><p>I&#039;ve figured out the other questions (1 and 3) above.&nbsp; Can you or someone else answer question number 4, that defines what Increment means relative to PSAR inputs?&nbsp; </p><p>I&#039;ve not yet seen another trading platform that uses this variable input for PSAR.&nbsp; Acceleration Factor and Extreme Price (Step and Maximum on other platforms) are the only two Trader defined (external user input) that I am aware of for the Indicator called, PSAR.</p><p>Thanks!</p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<p>Hello Technical Support:</p><p>I have four (4) questions - </p><p><strong>1)</strong>&nbsp; Is possible in either SB or ST, to use an Indicator&#039;s value as the Order Entry Point and/or Exit Point?</p><p><strong>2)</strong> Is it possible to expand the Parabolic SAR Acceleration and Maximum to accept numbers with four (4) decimal places to the right of zero, instead of just two (2)?</p><p><strong>3)</strong> Can you provide an example of a strategy that uses the Parabolic SAR for the entry, stop and limit.&nbsp; It would look something like this.</p><p><strong>Entry:</strong> </p><p>= if(High Price intercepts Current PSAR Value from BELOW, &quot;Long&quot;)<br />= if(LowPrice intercepts Current PSAR Value from ABOVE, &quot;Short&quot;)</p><p><strong>Exit:</strong></p><p>= if(and(Current Position = Long, Low Price intercepts Current PSAR Value from ABOVE, &quot;Exit Position&quot;)<br />= if(and(Current Position = Short, High Price intercepts Current PSAR Value from BELOW, &quot;Exit Position&quot;)</p><p>[note: the Stop would actually be the Exit, so it does not need to be explicitly encoded as a pending Stop Order]</p><p>This is a simple always-in strategy, where the Trader&#039;s settings for Acceleration Factor and Extreme Price make the difference between success and failure in the trade.</p><p>Lastly, in most trading platforms that I am familiar with, the PSAR Indicator has only two external (Trader defined) inputs: <strong>Acceleration Factor and Extreme Price</strong>.&nbsp; Some platforms will call them: &quot;Step&quot; and &quot;Maximum.&quot;&nbsp; In either case, there will typically be only two manual variables to control the location of the PSAR, relative to the actual price.&nbsp; On the ST version of the PSAR, you show another variable called <strong>Increment</strong>.&nbsp; </p><p><strong>4)</strong> What is this Trader defined variable for in relation to the PSAR and what effect does the value have on the shape of the parabola relative to price?</p><p>Thank you in advance for your assistance.</p><p>Regards,<br />JediTrader</p>]]></description>
