Hey, here’s the code for a system I’m running on the DAX 4H timeframe. I was thinking, can it have anything to do with the space between the lines of text? Because this is exactly how the code is written in PRT. It does look a bit messy maybe.

Defparam FlatBefore = 125500

Defparam FlatAfter = 170000

xClose = (Open+High+Low+Close)/4

if(barindex>2) then
xOpen = (xOpen[1] + xClose[1])/2
endif

c1 = xClose>xOpen AND xClose[1]<xOpen[1]
c2 = xClose<xOpen AND xClose[1]>xOpen[1]

if c2 AND Not LongOnMarket then
BUY 1 SHARE AT MARKET
EXITSHORT AT MARKET
endif

if c1 AND Not ShortOnMarket then
SELLSHORT 1 SHARE AT MARKET
SELL AT MARKET
endif

SET STOP $TRAILING 20

set target pprofit 40
