Hi, if you want to do nothing, you don’t have to code anything 🙂 Please explain what you want to do exactly?

why not: UpTrend = EMA > EMA[3]
```
IF UpTrend THEN
Buy 2 contracts at market
endif
```

Hi I’m trading Mean Reversion and I want to go LONG when the market is in down-trend. But some of the times there are false signal to go long. The market suddenly go up and then continue the down-trend I’m looking for a way to avoid those false signal.. By telling the strategy: While going down, do nothing../Avoid the signal But I’m guessing I can use the ‘NOT’ Like: IF NOT DownTrend THEN..
