Hi, I tried this as a test but it doesn't work well:
//SetTradeDelays( 1, 1, 1, 1 ); TimeFrameSet (in5Minute); C5=Ref (C,1); TimeFrameRestore(); BuyPrice = TimeFrameExpand (C5,in5Minute); Buy = C>1.45; Sell=C>50; All my signals are based on 15-minute bars but I do have 5-minute bars in the database. What I am trying to do is simply set the buyprice not as the close of the 15-minute bar, but as the close of the next 5-minute bar...
