Hello,
PRECISION. That is a key word. Follow precisely what I write.
I wrote something different:
Buy = 0;
*NOT* 1
It makes huge difference because with 100000 bars, buy = 1 means
OUTPUTTING 100000 lines of texts per symbol, so in your case it will be outputing
2.4 million lines of texts. Not something that can be done in few seconds.
Best regards,
Tomasz Janeczko
