Is This Possible?

If it does not exit that is likely due to exit conditions never being met. You would need to debug the strategy. Here is some helpful information on debugging.

Hi Ray/Josh

Thanks for your help, but I am still having some issues with this strategy. I am using the one as posted in Josh's reply and initially it seemed to work but that I cannot seem to get it to run correct now.
The strategy does not open a position. It is as if it runs through the code first and the command simEntry=true under condition set 2 is executed first ...??
If I remove that line, the strategy does open a position, but then of course it just loops into buy/sell continuously. If I put that ine back in under condition set 2, it never opens a position...

Any ideas what would cause this behaviour?

Are you talking about real-time or backtesting?

The check against Historical means it will only show up on backtests. Please use Print functions throughout the code to see what value simEntry is set to at various steps of your logic. This will help you determine why it is opening/not opening your position.

I am trying it with the simuated data feed.

I'm guessing you start with a completely blank chart when you start up the Simulated Data Feed then.

The problem is as stated in my previous post. The check against Historical will prevent anything from happening if all the bars on the chart were generated in real-time (sim feed is same as real-time).

Alternatively you could probably try something like

if (CurrentBar == 1)
     EnterLong(Quantity, "");
