Yes. Just use:
123BUY ? Contracts AT High STOPSELL AT (close + AverageTrueRange[?]) LIMITSELL AT (close - AverageTrueRange[?]) STOPObviously replace the ? with your values. You will have to set these instructions at the close of every bar that you want the instruction to last for as they only last for one bar and are then cancelled.

Hi. I want to trade the major indices with the following condition. Assume c1 is the condition for a long trade. If c1, then enter a long trade if a following bar crosses over the high of the signal bar. The entry level should be the high of the signal bar (not the next market open). The order should be valid for x bars after the signal bar. The profit limit is the close of the signal bar plus the ATR and the stop loss is the close of the signal bar minus the ATR.
By no means you (and anyone else) may access future data. So you’ll have to modify your sentence to the past: “Assume c1[1] is the condition for a long trade, then enter a long trade if THIS bar crosses over the high of the signal (previous) bar. i.e. HIGH[1]”.

I picked up the original idea, looked for a profitable timeframe on the DAX and added one additional condition, that the market must be “risk on” – otherwise it will not buy.

Trading with fix 1 lot on the 1 EURO DAX CFD. Using a re-invest rule the profit rocks up > 25K in the same period of time.
I would be thrilled to see your version of the code beating the results of the RED and GREEN version. Let’s do a little competition here 🙂
PS: The green one will be shared later …
I have 27379 EUR… 10.000 bars (starting from October 1st 2013)

Code will be shared later 😉 I would be happy to see so other tentatives once I’ll be back from the soccer field … 😉

I would be happy to see so other tentatives once I’ll be back from the soccer field … Thanks for posting your results. How does the result look like with only 1 LOT ?
