Your exit signal is resetting every time your entry condition repeats.
This indicator explains it visually:
---8<----------------
pds:=Input("Consecutive periods",1,21,4);
long:=Sum(C<Ref(C,-1),pds)=pds;
short:=BarsSince(long)=1;
long;-short
---8<----------------
And this is a solution to the resetting problem:
---8<----------------
pds:=Input("Consecutive periods",1,21,4);
long:=Sum(C<Ref(C,-1),pds)=pds;
long:=long AND Alert(long=0,2);
short:=BarsSince(long)=1;
long;-short
---8<----------------
