I've tried everything I can think of. And It just don't make since that you can not place a order at the time the condition is met. WHY do programmers make it so you have to wait til Close of the current bar or Open of next bar, by that time you have lost
Anyone know how to solve this?

StockT8er,

welcome to NexusFi. Take a look at intrabar order generation which allows you to issue orders during a bar with EasyLanguage.

It still waits to buy at open of next bar, It will not buy with in current bar

It still waits to buy at open of next bar, It will not buy with in current bar

According to the documentation linked below you should be able to generate an order on the next tick if your condition holds true.

I'm with you though; I think Easylanguage sucks big time! It makes you jump through hoops to do things that should be simple to do. I don't understand why that is so.

Well with EasyLanguage it does not work. Is there another platform that it will, and does that platform allow you to have a 5,10,15,30 second time frame

This is the script

[IntrabarOrderGeneration = True]

Variables:
TickSize (MinMove / PriceScale );

Value1 = 0;

If (BarStatus(1) = 2) and Close[0] > Open[0] Then begin
Value1 = 1;
end;

inputs:
LECondition( Close > Open ) [DisplayName = "LECondition", ToolTip =
"Long Entry Condition. Enter an EasyLanguage expression. When expression is true, the strategy will buy."];

if (BarStatus(1) = 2) and // only submit orders at the close of the bar
(MarketPosition = 0) and Value1 = 1 {inside bar} Then Begin

Buy ( !( "TLX" ) ) 10 Shares at next Bar CurrentBid or Higher;
end;

Computers generally do what they're told - in this case with IntrabarOrderGeneration enabled, "next bar" is actually "next tick". You're checking for the end of the current bar with "BarStatus(1) = 2" which is fine though my guess is that it's simply waiting to enter whenever the next tick kicks in at the start of the NEXT bar (which could be "immediately" or a LONG time depending on how volatile the security is at the moment).

My .02 - what bar type are you using? (time-based, range, tick, Renko, etc.)

10 Second, or 15 /second, 30 Second

Should I go to

10 Tick, 20 Tick etc.?

My ultimate goal would be to Buy as soon as a Bar turned Green and Sell as soon as a Bar turned Red
The Software is able to do it, why can we not tie into the software's logic?
When I watch a chart. Depending on the time of a bar, most bars stay either Green or Red, from beginning to end of bar.
