Close position 10 days after it was opened

September 20th, 2013, 09:47 AM

Hello everyone.

I am new to thinkscript. I am researching something and have created a strategy about buying into weakness.

I am having trouble with my sell to close order.

Code

AddOrder(OrderType.SELL_AUTO, close>close[10], close, 100, Color.WHITE, Color.WHITE, "Close @ " + close);

I would like to close the position in the strategy 10 days after it was opened. The code above just takes the current close and compares it to the last 10 days which does not help me.

Could you guys please lend me a hand?

Cheers

Not sure, but I think getDay() will help

GetDay ? Resource Center

HTML Code:

plot Price = if GetDay() <= 100 then close else Double.NaN;
