thanks EasyTrader_I and statsign !!! I first try EasyTrader_I suggestion , and it worked OK in backtested chart however when I start playback in multichart ..it didnt work maybe this is some kind of multichart bug .. than I try statsign version ..but I wasn't able to make it work at all even on bactested chart not sure what docount var do ?

I need my strategy to take only specified amount of traders per day, so I can avoid overtrading can this be coded in tradestation ?

I am not Easy language expert ...and I am not sure if this can be coded at all but if you can drop few lines as a I will be grateful

ah ..ok most important is you understand what I mean so we can guess at what price bar will be closed since we have open, high, low of that bar and we know size of bar so ...question is ...is anyone know how to code this ?

why do you think it cant be predicted if you use range bar ..let say 4 tick range ..and it opens at 100 he can be closed at 104or 96 and if open 100 and go down 1 tick at 99..than it can be only closed at 103 ( if it goes up again ) or 96 ...etc ... so bar closing can be predicted because you know how big is bar and you have open price

yes I am talking about range bars and I want use stop order for entry to position ..not exit so I have system that generates market orders on bar close and I want send stop order ( entry ) at bar price clse price ..before bar is closed if bar newer close at that price ( if goes other way ) order will not be executed that way, I will save some time and probably get better fill and cut slippage

how can I calculate next range bar close...and send stop order to that price ?

I have similar problem and I understand that on time bars you cant do anything, becauase bar must be closed but I was thinking ...if I use range bars and range bars close price can be predicted ...I was thinking how can I send stop order to broker at bar close price before bar is closed this way I maybe I can get better fill because broker alredy have my stop ( market ) order

I trade oil.. today possible turn point, after inventory ... will see

brownsfan sorry ..i didn't want offend you I just want chat about your CL trades, and I don't see why is that a problem btw. I see lot of post you claiming that you trade few market only AM since that is time when market moving .... your second trade was 1 pm ... if you don't want talk about it ....no problem we all breaking our trading rules sometimes cya

I also trading oil, and I must admit that your first oil trade was very risky from my point of view ... I understand your entry setup ..but why did you hold it so long ? what gives you confidence to hold it ? and exit ..does you look on R1 ( ressistance 1 ).or something else second setup I also take ..that was easy one anyway you get :applaud: from me today I asume this was your trades for today

did I get you right ..you recommend wider stops than targets or oposite

can anyone recommend good data source for MC backtestiong and trading I use IB as broker , and they dont have contionous data contracts and tick data ...

didnt trade today whole day in mess adapting my new apartment btw , I can send you screenshot of my new kitchen ...j/k
