help with code on entry day only

Could someone help by telling me if it's possible to code exits on ENTRY DAY
that use entryprice?

The following code doesn't seem to work.  I want to exit on the ENTRY DAY if
either:
    A)  price drops by 5% of entryprice.
    B)  price rises by 2% above entryprice.

Any help would be appreciated.

================================================

{A - Stop Loss on Date of Entry Only equal to 5% below entry price}

If MarketPosition = 0  Then Exitlong ("Entry-low")  next Bar .95 *
entryprice stop;


{B - Exit at profit on Date of Entry Only equal to 2% above entry price}

If MarketPosition = 0  Then Exitlong ("Day1")  next Bar 1.02* entryprice
stop;
