how to make a signal valid for 4 bars?

[leontancfa]

Hi.

I have a cross over trading system on tick chart. I need the limit buy signal stay valid for 4 bars. But it canceled the limit order after the bar[0] is closed.

Is there any way to work around it?

Thank you!

Take a look at the example in the link below... of how to use EnterLongLimit() with LiveUntilCancel optional parameter, a bar counter variable, and CancelOrder(). Read the caution note too.
