[amibroker] Backtesting - Exiting a trade at specific time intervals (n bars)

Trading Reference Links

Hi all,

I'm writing a trading script to test a breakaway gap system and I want
my sell conditions to be as follows:

Sell at close for the "buy" bar
Sell at close for the "buy" bar + 1 
Sell at close for the "buy" bar + 4

etc.

Basically I want to determine the average gain/loss for holding a
stock that has gapped up for 1 day, 1 week, 2 weeks, 1 month etc.

I'm not sure how to write a script that will be able to do this. 

Any and all  help is greatly appreciated. 

Thank you,

AMo
