  Hallo everyone, I’m new to this program and I didin’t find the button to search into the forum.

  As the title I would like to buy on the 27 of every month at the opening and sell after 2 days at the end of the day.

  The other days I’ll go to fish 🙂

  thanks in advance

  The attached screenshot showswhere the search box is (it opens whenever you hover your pic).

  What shall it do when the 27th is on a holiday?

  And what if the next two days is past the end of the month?

  Moreover, ProOrder is the support forum for strategy, as from the basic rules highlighted in yellow below.

  I moved it from ProBuilder.

  Thank you 🙂

  Thanks Roberto, the problem about the holiday, If so I don’t buy. If after 2 days ther is holiday or there is another month, I’ll prefer to skip this buy.

  There you go (I tested it on DAX, Daily TF):

  TimeFrame(Daily,UpdateOnClose) If OpenMonth <> OpenMonth[1] Then OM = OpenMonth OD = OpenDay ODW = OpenDayOfWeek OY = OpenYear LastDay = 31 If OM = 4 or OM = 6 or OM = 9 or OM = 11 Then LastDay = 30 Endif If OM = 2 Then LastDay = 28 If OY mod 4 = 0 Then If OY mod 100 = 0 Then If OY mod 400 = 0 Then LastDay = 29 Endif Else LastDay = 29 Endif Endif Endif EOM = OD //EOM=End Of Month EntryDay = 0 //Day to enter a trade ExitDay = 0 //Day to exit the trade opened on EntryDay FOR i = OD + 1 To LastDay ODW = ODW + 1 IF ODW = 7 THEN ODW = 0 ENDIF IF ODW <= 5 THEN IF (i = 27) AND (i + 2) <= LastDay THEN EntryDay = i ELSIF (i >= (EntryDay + 2)) AND (ExitDay = 0) AND (EntryDay <> 0) THEN ExitDay = i ENDIF ENDIF NEXT ENDIF // Timeframe(default) IF ((OpenDay >= ExitDay) OR (OpenMonth <> OpenMonth[1])) AND LongOnMarket Then SELL AT Market Endif // If (OpenDay = EntryDay) AND (ExitDay > 0) AND Not OnMarket Then BUY 1 contract at Market Endif //graph OpenMonth //graph ExitDay //graph EntryDay //graph LastDay

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52

  TimeFrame(Daily,UpdateOnClose) If OpenMonth <> OpenMonth[1] Then    OM      = OpenMonth    OD      = OpenDay    ODW     = OpenDayOfWeek    OY      = OpenYear    LastDay = 31    If OM = 4 or OM = 6 or OM = 9 or OM = 11 Then       LastDay = 30    Endif    If OM = 2 Then       LastDay = 28       If OY mod 4 = 0 Then          If OY mod 100 = 0 Then             If OY mod 400 = 0 Then                LastDay = 29             Endif          Else             LastDay = 29          Endif       Endif    Endif    EOM      = OD      //EOM=End Of Month    EntryDay = 0       //Day to enter a trade    ExitDay  = 0       //Day to exit the trade opened on EntryDay    FOR i = OD + 1 To LastDay       ODW = ODW + 1       IF ODW = 7 THEN          ODW = 0       ENDIF       IF ODW <= 5 THEN          IF (i = 27) AND (i + 2) <= LastDay THEN             EntryDay = i          ELSIF (i >= (EntryDay + 2)) AND (ExitDay = 0)  AND (EntryDay <> 0) THEN             ExitDay  = i          ENDIF       ENDIF    NEXT ENDIF // Timeframe(default) IF ((OpenDay >= ExitDay) OR (OpenMonth <> OpenMonth[1])) AND LongOnMarket Then    SELL AT Market Endif // If (OpenDay = EntryDay) AND (ExitDay > 0) AND Not OnMarket Then    BUY 1 contract at Market Endif //graph OpenMonth //graph ExitDay //graph EntryDay //graph LastDay
