Coding a simple entry and exit

That's what I was trying to tell you, you cannot determine the current bar's high/low until it's historical (in the past). If your exit is based on this bar close, it may or may not be at the high/low. If you set the exit on the open of the next bar, again, it may or may not be at this bar's high low. If you set the exit to run intrabar, every tick is evaluated and so if a bar opens at 100.00 and moves up to 100.01, then that is the current "high" and would trigger an exit. There …

Tks

Perhaps I'm reading too much between the lines, but I can't believe how rude you're being right now. Why don't you try it for yourself?

If you use the code example and read RM99 insightful comments you would be practically done. Do you think other users will continue to help you help with this attitude?

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying we don't like to help out, but I don't see you saying a "thanks" to any of the helpful posts to your question, and you're not putting in your own effort to solve your problem.

Why not give it a shot this long 4th July weekend?
