How do I tell the system "Don't trade for one day after a trade returning a profit > x" and "No long trades after a short trade returning a profit > x"? Thank you.
Use Flags: If PositionProfit >= 0 then Flag = CurrentBar; (Or you can use Flag = Date[0]) After that use logic like: If CurrentBar >= Flag +2 Then ..... Or if Date[0] >= Flag +2 Then ... Do not forget to reset your flags to "0" You'll figure it out Regards,
Thank you very much. I am using "positionprofit" as you suggested, but I seem to have found a way to make it work like this, at least as far as my first question is concerned: PositionProfit(1) < 1000 or (Date - ExitDate(1)) >= 1
I found another way, the other didn't actually work for various reasons (my data is on a 5-min timeframe): Positionprofit(1) < c * Pr_Profit or barssinceexit(1) > Bars_to_wait
