Okay, Thank you Harold. Got it. I changed the Buy to "O" (Open) and
left the Sell at "C" (Close). The code worked well. I just noticed
your posting which was dated Oct, 18, 2008.

//Here is the code below.

SetTradeDelays(0,0,0,0);
BuyPrice = O;
SellPrice = C;
Buy = IIf(DateNum()==950623,1,0);
Sell = IIf(DateNum()==1020912,1,0);
