to sell after 10 days from entry use Applystop is the easiest
you can also use
buy=exremspan(BUY,10);
sell=ref(buy,-10);

Cross gives a value of 0 or 1 if false or true. Summing the cross over
anumber of bars gives the number of times that cross was true for that
period.

An alternative to Sum(......., 5 ) would be to use
barssince( Cross( EMA(Close,20 ),EMA(Close, 50) ) ) < 5
