most recent signals

[tunabomb]

Hi, in Strategy Builder I understand how to show all the signals from a strategy on a chart by creating a tag string CurrentBars [0]. How would you show the most recent 2 to 4 signals only?

Also in Strategy Builder is it possible to exit a position after a certain amount of time? Thanks

Hello tunabomb,

"How would you show the most recent 2 to 4 signals only?"

What do you mean by signals?
Do you mean drawing objects like a dot?

You could re-use drawing object tag names to update them to a later bar.

Or you can use Remove drawing object remove objects by the tag name.

"Also in Strategy Builder is it possible to exit a position after a certain amount of time?"

You could count a number of bars in the strategy builder.

Or you can use time conditions to trigger an action at a specific time or time range.
