....
If I buy on the close of Thursday and sell on the close of friday
using daily bars that trade takes 24hours and one bar. If I buy on
the open thr and sell on the open friday, that trade takes 24hours and
1 bar also. Open to open is one bar not 2.
Please look at a chart for clarification. Thursday's close exists on
Thursday's bar, Friday's close exists on Friday's bar. That is 2 bars, not 1
bar. If you want 1 bar for each trade, then enter on the open and exit on
the close.
Respectfully, your analysis logic is flawed, since you consistently fail to
recognize session boundaries. Your trading statements will show 2 different
dates for such trades. One must look at it from the software's point of
view, not any arbitrary subjective view. As you repeatedly state in your
every example of your signal, 2 bars are involved in each completed trade,
not 1.
My contribution to correcting your issue is finished, as there's nothing
left to say.
