Hello!

I am working on an inside bar strategy and I´ve found som exit criterias, but I believe the code is from MetaStock and I wonder if it is possible to convert it to PRT code?

Here is the code:

tr = 0.75

si = 0.75

else if marketposition = 1 then begin
sell next bar at entryprice + entryprice*tr/100 limit;
sell next bar at entryprice – entryprice*si/100 stop;
end

else if marketposition = -1 then begin
buy to cover next bar at entryprice – entryprice*tr/100 limit;
buy to cover next bar at entryprice + entryprice*si/100 stop;

end

If someone could convert this it would be greatly appreciated!

I think that it could be converted this way:
```
itr = 0.75
si = 0.75

if longonmarket then 
 sell at tradeprice + tradeprice*itr/100 limit
 sell at tradeprice – entryprice*si/100 stop
elsif shortonmarket then 
 exitshort at tradeprice – tradeprice*itr/100 limit
 exitshort at tradeprice + tradeprice*si/100 stop
endif
```

The only thing not working in your code is “entryprice” PRT says the variable is undefined

Thanks

Replace entryprice with tradeprice. I think it is a typo by Nicolas.
