    Try this (not tested):
    [scode]
    LookBack = 10
    MyEma = average[20,1](close)
    // LONG example
    LongCond = (close > MyEma) and (low <= MyEma) and (summation[LookBack](low <= MyEma)[1]) If LongCond And not OnMarket Then Buy 1 contract at Market Endif [/scode]

    If you want to make sure price has also never closed below MyEma in the last LookBack bars, replace line 4 with:
    [scode]
    LongCond = (low <= MyEma) and (summation[LookBack](low <= MyEma)[1]) And (summation[LookBack](close >= MyEma) = LookBack)
    [/scode]

    thank you for your helping

    but i dont really understand what is the difference between “longonmarket” “onmarket” “shortonmarket”

    also, “if” and “if not”

    for example:
    if i want to entry buy position, i should
    1. if longonmarket/onmarket then or
    2. if not longonmarket/onmarket then

    im so confuse how to use those codes.

    thank you very much

    Sounds like you need basic training? Have you ever coded before? It’s okay … I and many others on here hadn’t coded before we started using PRT .

    Try reading the PRT Manual and / or do Nicolas video course.
