Good day,

I want to implement a simple Exit strategy, namely EXITING after 5 
trading days. 

I have created a simple strategy for backtesting: (still learning):

Buy =  Ref(C,-1) > Ref(C,-2)  AND    //buy after 2 up-Closes
       Ref(C,-2) > Ref(C,-3):

       BuyPrice = (Ref(C,-1);  //Buy today at yesterdays Close(Limit) 
----------------------------------------------------------------
Now I want to sell after 5 days. 

Went to the Backtester and Settings > Stops and set the "N-Bar Stop" 
to 5.
After doing this, I get the following error message from backtester:

"Missing Buy/Sell Variable assignment".

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks.

Werner
