I´m new to PRT and are useing “simplified Creation” when making strategies. The only option I get in the dropdown menu is “next bar open” for when the signal will execute. I absolutely don´t want that!

-Does signals execute immediately when using “Creation by programming”?

-If not, is it even possible in PRT to have that function? How?

ALL strategies are executed when a bar closes, so any trade is entered at next bar opened.

You can use the MTF (multiple time frame) support to use lower TFs other than the setup one to enter before your setup bar is closed.

If you search this forum for the word MTF you’ll fine many examples and tutorials.
