Don't you have to know which came

  Is it possible to create a trade flag for this.
     With out using exrem,
     If buy==1 and sell ==0, and the previous trade has been 
  closed ,then buy.
      If buy==0 and sell==1 and in a trade which has not had 
  a sell signal, then sell. 
       If buy==1 and sell ==1 and the previous buy 
  has had a sell signal before today, then buy and sell on the same bar. 
  
      If buy ==1 and sell==1 and the previous buy has 
  not had a sell signal  before today, then  sell.  (dont 
  place a new buy  on the same bar that has a sell).   
     I guess this needs a loop.
   
   Basically i am trying to bypass using exrem, to allow an entry and 
  exit on the same bar,
   
   I dont want an a new entry placed  when already in a trade, on 
  the day of the sell, as the trade was not closed.
    2 entries before a sell would not be realistic.
    This happens when using exrem.
   
    The attached files shows a sample from a backtest using 
  exrem.
     I am trying to avoid the same result as in the 
  attachment.
