Hi all,

anyone know if there's a way to close position after N Days of activity ?
Of for example, to refere "barsinceentry" from data2 ?

No Erocla,

what about counting the number of days you are in a position or to close the position when the date is X days later than your entry date?

Dear ABCTG thank you for response,

i don't know about the first way, because day are from 0 to 6.

No Erocla,

for the first way you'd need your own counter, each new day while in a position you'd increment it. You don't need the day value for that.
PosTradeEntryDateTime already stores the date information for entries, there is no need to store it. When you work on daily charts you can even use BarsSinceEntry.
