Also you can type a LIST of dates into POWER editor and than do either BUY at 
close or BUY at open depending on youre idea - you can adjust for the date by a 
"-1" as TS only knows at the EOD what it did - e.g. 

here some fake dates:

if                     date crosses above
990219 -1 or date crosses above
990313 -1 or date crosses above
990405 -1 then 
			Buy;

This will buy on any above dates and you just have to add a eXITLONG 
statement depending on what you used for your ENTRYdateRULE:

if barsSINCEentry = 0 then ExitSHORT;
or
if marketposition = -1 then ExitSHORT;
