Limit Order and Trailing Stop

[tiger45]

Hi,
I'd like to create a strategy where a stop limit order is placed after a condition is met, then cancel this order X bars later if not filled. If it is filled, I'd like to trail the stop based upon the previous bar's close.

For example, on a long trade, after the condition is met, I'd like an order placed below the market. After X bars and not filled, cancel the order. If the order is filled, I'd like the stop to be set on the low of the previous bar, then trail up on the close with each bar.

Is there a code example for this?

Thanks.

Hello,

Thank you for your note.

This is not a problem to code. However a reference to do exactly this does not exist.

However please take a look at the following references that should get you up and running.
