Thank you!!! I appreciate your help very much. It looks like it's working! Now, I just need to figure out one hundred thousand other things :-))

oh yes, sorry (bad copy and paste), in the code it's actually barssinceexit(1)>5 but it doesn't work. here is all the code: condition1 = Average(close,8) crosses over Average(close,12) ; condition2 = close > average (close,300) ; condition3 = barssinceexit(1)>5; condition4 = marketposition=0; IF condition1 and condition2 and condition3 and condition4 THEN BUY 1 share next bar AT MARKET; //SELL SIGNAL if marketposition=1 then sell next bar at(entryprice+10)limit; setstoploss(20); if currentbar - barssinceentry(0)= 22 then sell next bar at market; Any ideas? Thanks a lot!

Hi, Thank you for your answer but it doesn't work. Here is the piece of code: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- condition1 = Average(close,8) crosses over Average(close,12) ; condition2 = barssinceentry(1) > 5; condition3 = marketposition=0; IF condition1 and condition2 and condition3 THEN BUY 1 share next bar AT MARKET; ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- What do you think? Thanks

yes, I read this manual again and again and look on internet. I am actually not sure it's the right command for what I a want to do but I can not think about something else... any suggestion?

Hi, For backtesting, I would like to set up a minimum number of days (5 day) between two trades: I tried that: barssinceexit(1) > 5, it didn't work... I tried a few other possibilities too. Didn't work! Thanks for your help, Smurf
