Another Solution: value1 = ExitsToday(date);
The ExitsToday function returns the number of strategy position exits that
occurred throughout the date specified by the input parameter Date0.
The ExitsToday function only works in Strategies, and will not work in any
other indicator or analysis technique study type. The function is limited to
looking back 10 positions, so the maximum number of ExitsToday that could be
reported is 10, if there were 10 entries today.
Usage
ExitsToday(TargetDate_YYYMMDD)
Returns (Integer)
A numeric value for a target date.
Parameters
TargetDate_YYYMMDD
A numeric date value. This is the target date, entered in the format
"YYYMMDD" or a date related function or calculation.
Remarks
The input parameter Date0 can be a constant value like such as 1020601
(6-1-2002), where 102 = 2002, 103 = 2003, 99 = 1999, and so on. It can also
reference date related keywords like Date, (which returns the current bar
date), and CurrentDate, (which returns the datafeed date.)
Examples
Assigns to Value1 the number of exits throughout each day on the chart:
Value1 = ExitsToday (Date);
Assigns to Value1 the number of exits throughout the current day only and
then checks for three exits:
Value1 = ExitsToday (CurrentDate);
if Value1 = 3 then .
