    Hi so I created indicator called NFPDay and I calculate in there the Friday’s of the month.

    Then I call the NFPDAY and say if it is 1 Criteria is met. However it is not executing.

    Here is the code for the indicator and the ProOrder system

    //Name NFPDAY 
//Count of Fridays in a month Indicator
If Dayofweek = 4 Then
NewFriday = 1
else
NewFriday =0
endif
If Month = Month[1] then
Friday=Friday+NewFriday
else
Friday = NewFriday
Endif
Return Friday

//Strategy Code
DEFPARAM Flatafter = 153000
Friday = Call "NFPDAY"
IF Friday = 1 Then
DayOK=1
Else
DayOk=0
endif

If Time = 093000 Then
Active =1
Else
Active=0
Endif

If Close > Open Then
Bull =1
BeAR=0
ELSe
BEAR=1
BULL=0
endif

// Conditions to enter long positions
IF NOT LongOnMarket AND dayok and Active and Bull THEN
BUY 1 CONTRACTS AT MARKET
ENDIF

// Conditions to enter short positions
IF NOT ShortOnMarket AND dayok and Active and Bear THEN
SELLSHORT 1 CONTRACTS AT MARKET
ENDIF

    I suggest that you use OpenMonth and OpenDayOfWeek (they return the value at the opening of a candle)  instead of Month and DayOfWeek (which return the same value, but when a candle closes):

    //Name NFPDAY
//Count of Fridays in a month Indicator

If OpenMonth <> OpenMonth[1] then
   Friday = 0
endif

If (OpenDayofweek = 4) AND (OpenDayofweek <> OpenDayofweek[1]) Then
   NewFriday = 1
   If OpenMonth = OpenMonth[1] then
      Friday=Friday+NewFriday
   else
      Friday = NewFriday
   endif
else
   NewFriday =0
endif

Return Friday
