    Hi, I am trying to code a bot and it comes up with this syntax error wherein it indicates that BUY is incorrect.  I am not sure what the problem may be and would welcome any suggestion on how to correct it.

     

    thanks

    Indicator1 = close
    Indicator2 = KS
    Indicator3 = CS
    Indicator4 = SA
    indicator5 = ExponentialAverage[5](close)
    c1=(Indicator1 > Indicator2)
    c2=(Indicator1 > CS AND SA)
    // Conditions to enter long positions
    IF (c1 AND c2)THEN Buy possize CONTRACT AT MARKET
    ENDIF

    It would be so much eaiser if you use  the blue Insert PRT Code button on the far right of the message toolbar.

    What are KS, CS and SA ?

    possize = 1
Indicator1 = close				
Indicator2 = KS				
Indicator3 = CS				
Indicator4 = SA				
indicator5 = ExponentialAverage[5](close)	
c1=(Indicator1 > Indicator2)			
c2=(Indicator1 > CS AND SA)			
// Conditions to enter long positions		
IF (c1 AND c2) THEN 
Buy possize CONTRACT AT MARKET
ENDIF

    The problem was THEN, it cannot be followed by anything but comments on the same line.

    GraHal’s correction works fine.
