How to set STOP N Bars

Hi

Is it possible to set (close long positions) N Bars from the time the BUY
position is entered? How is this done?
In TradeStation  the following puseduo code would accomplish this:

"If current bar if greater than or equal to the number of bars from the
Position Bar than Exit."

What I want to do in MetaStock for example:

Long:
Cross(mov(c,18,e), mov(c,33,e))

Close Long:
N Bars from going Long.

Buy on next day Open.
Exit on next day Open.

Any suggestion would be most welcome.

Regards
Siva
