Exit after set # of bars

[sandeshrai]

I am having trouble getting my trade to exit after a set # of bars:

Here is my code for exit:

if(this.iUseEOBExit)
{
if(



// Exit after set number of bars
BarsSinceEntry() == this.iBARSSINCEENTRY ||
// Exit if bar closes below entry price + some offset
Close[0]<Position.AvgPrice - this.iTICKSIZE*TickSize

)
{
if(this.iQuantity1 != 0 && tVars.iOrder[1] == null)
tVars.iOrder[1] = ExitLong("eob", string.Empty);

return;
}
}

If I comment out the 'BarsSinceEntry' portion, the other exit which is based on bar close below entry price works. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance

Exit after set # of bars

I have set it to 4. I expect it to be in the range of 2 - 10

Hello,

Could you possible post more of your code here? I am not seeing anything immediately obvious here. You can also attach the code itself to your post if that is easier.
