ABCTG,

So this did work but not the way i was thinking. This is going to a lot bigger than I thought....

I attached two images one where you can see the strategy making a short position and not taking any profit till reverse. (this is the original code)

The other attached image is one one the same chart just with the code that you suggested. It did work but every time the profit target is hit there is a new position opens. I dont want it to open till the ATR changes to the other signal.... Dont know it that makes any sense.

I do see that you are a coder and have your own website, please let me know it this is possible. Maybe we can work something out.

I do appreciate all your help!

Hi barabas,

as I have mentioned in post 6, the entry conditions are calendar based and could always allow an entry past the set date.
You would have to monitor the ATR and only set the WaitingForEntry to true when your conditions that should re-allow an entry are met.

Regards,

ABCTG
