BarsSinceEntryExecution not working?

[johnnybegoode]

I'm trying to eliminate the problem of when moving average
crossover too close.

Why is the BarsSinceEntryExecution not working?
(See attached photo)

if (
(CrossAbove(SMA2, SMA1, 1))
)
                        {
                EnterLong(0, 4000,"EnterLong");    
            }

if (
(PositionAccount.Quantity >= 1)
&&(CrossBelow(SMA2, SMA1, 1))        
&&(BarsSinceEntryExecution(0, "EnterLong", 0) > 10)    
  )
            {
                ExitLong(Position.Quantity,"Exit","EnterLong");
            }

Hi johnnybegoode,
I can't reproduce the error. When looking at your screenshot, it appears as if you also have some other logic because there are some short trades, too. Are you sure that your (premature) exits are not triggered by opposite entries? What happens if you allow entries in one direction only?

Hello, Thanks for your post.
