Hello gpr95,

Thanks for your post.

To clarify, are you looking for an existing indicator or are you looking for advice on programming a custom indicator yourself?

I am not aware of an existing indicator that accomplishes this. You could browse the Ecosystem User App Share linked below for a possible solution.

This forum thread will also be open for other community members to share their insights on the topic.

Otherwise, you would need to program a custom indicator to use the Account class Account.CreateOrder() and Account.Submit() methods to create and submit an order to close the position once your condition is true.
