You take an email sent to you in private public. Very courteous of you.
Those who are incline to help you in private will now do it in public or not
at all.

: Are people allowed to ask for help with coding?

That's what this list is for.

: I put some basic code up and bracketed what I was trying to achieve so

You've put up some codes in a statement block. You did not describe what you
want to accomplish or what you want want to achieve. Therefore, people can
read your mind and know exactly what you want to do... All you want is for
us to code an exit you have yet to specify but because we can read your
mind, we can do it for you like Marvin the Mindreader.

: All I asked for was some help to code an exit. I said it was an exit. What
: other explanation do I need to provide?

What kind of exit? Profit target? Trailing stops? % risk? Floor? Hard dollar
stops? Trailing dollar stops? Time based stops? Inverted logic stops?
Accelerated stops? MAE stops?
