Ken i solved the problem i mentioned in my previous mail.
The high in the fake ticker inccrements by a count of 1 for each
day.
you can reference the value of the high in the fake ticker using
foreign.
when a buy condition of the normal ticker is true, i can use a
formula that notes the value of the high on the fake ticker.
If i want to exit 50 days(calender days)later then its simply when
buy condition is true, then value of fake tickers high + x amount of
extra days i want to exit.
when fake tickers high value is equal or > than the above it will
trigger a sell.
in an exploration the value will jump from e.g. if it was friday
and the value was 101, the next bar will have a value of 104 as it
has counted the weekend.
If you want the fake ticker posted, reply to this thread.
You wont need to update the ticker either as its dates go to 2010.
Peter.
