Goodmorning,

is there a function or script that i can use to set an exit based on time?

Ex: today i have an entry signal and i want exit 3 days after the entry signal and have a stop level under the low of the day of the entry signal.

Thanks.

gg -

I am no expert, but you can try this:

Set your Sell Order to be the exact same signal as your buy order (i.e. just copy the formula over), BUT at the bottom change the "Strategic Delay" to be +3 (or whatever you want) days. I believe the simulator will buy and then automatically sell in +3 days, since both conditions have been satisfied.

If you want to exit 3 number of bars after entering the trade...I would set an Inactivity Stop, setting it to 1000% (something it will not reach) and set periods to 3.
