I have been searching the forums, watched videos and have yet find a solution to my quest for knowledge.

Can someone please tell me how to enter a historical trade to see how it performs?

Examples:

GUSH
12/12/19 4:00PM $30.17
BUY with TRAILING STOP 5%

DRIP
12/12/19 4:00PM $70.01
BUY with TRAILING STOP 5%

Then our forum search has a serious issue (just kidding). I simply typed in "historic" in our Search Forum box and several hits popped up, for example:

Plot historical trades on chart?
How to enter historical dates for buy and sell?
Trade history to chart along with historical prices
etc.

By looking at server logs I see you had found these topics too, but what made you create the support ticket later on and get redirected here? I'm just trying to understand the ways of users and what presents difficulties.

To sum things up, there are two options:

1. Simple to set up and use: Import real (historical) trades

Since you're a new user you don't have privileges to install a required library. Please create a support ticket to verify your WLP entitlement, install Community Components library and restart WLP.

2. Versatile but complex enough for new users: a downloadable strategy called Historical Trades: splits, cash flow, multiple files, shared equity (see "Instructions for Script Download").

The threads I read, and the ones you linked to, involve sample code, importing information, etc. If I had real (historical) trade data, I would not need to do a historic paper trade, as I would already know what happened.

I created a support ticket, as in my 30 years of experience using computers, I have very rarely received replies that answered my question by other users in forums.

I have less than 30 days left to play with Wealth Lab Pro as I am not an "entitled" person, I do not meet the minimum requirements for continued use.

REMOVED does not have a Trailing Stop option. REMOVED support person said they passed along the suggestion to add the Trailing Stop option to historic orders. If they get the option added, I can do the historic trades in my first post example.

It contradicts what you said in post #1: "Can someone please tell me how to enter a historical trade to see how it performs?" But anyway, trades don't have to be real to be imported and plotted. It's just arbitrary data.

As you can see, here it works. Our forum is an ever active, live knowledge base. The more answers the more value it has. The forum is the preferred support channel - tickets are good for communicating private info.

Not sure what the mention of a competitor has to do with this discussion. Looked like a plug so I deleted it out.

You may want to use BuyAtClose but in very basic code this may help:

CODE:
Please log in to see this code.

Know that if you gain access to the necessary libraries you can use the Historical trades strategy to enter all the trades from a saved file by giving symbol, date, Long or Short and entry type (At Open, At Close or At Price).

In Historical Trades a code sample is actually shown but commented out at the very bottom under" /* To Process exits separately". You would substitute the trailing stop for the ExitAtMarket statement. It is only a few lines of code.

Basically that's what "Import real (historical) trades" is doing under the hood.
