can one use the term "entryprice" or EA etc in cod

[gawdib]

It would be helpful to be able to use as my initial- maximum- stop- loss- for- initially- invested -in- the- trade capital, such as "entryprice"-2*atr(50) or, as on page 103 of the manual EA-2*atr(50), etc
can one do that?

Yes this is exactly how you would use it. Note though that the ATR includes todays prices so to be realistic you may want to use the previous bars ATR.

InitialStop:=EntryPrice-2*ref(ATR(50),-1);

for short trades

InitialStop:=EntryPrice+2*ref(ATR(50),-1);
