Do you maybe don't use the low-level approach? long BarsInTrade bars spent in trade (counting starts from 0) Note however that the value of zero is available only when trade is just opened in "low-level" approach, so normally you would see numbers >= 1 (all other reporting in AB remains as it was, so enter today and exit tommorrow counts as 2-bar trade)

Trying to figure out how to exit only and NOT enter a replacement position. I tried pos.BarsInTrade( ) thinking that a value of zero seems to imply that the position was just bought. That is, was thinking of using pos.BarsInTrade( ) of zero to set sig.PosScore to zero thinking that doing so would cause AB to not replace position exited. Yet, pos.BarsInTrade( ) does not seem to be available when a position is just entered into (i.e., for a zero value as covered in AB Help). Correct? Any ideas on what to concentrate on when one wants CBT to just exit a position when the position's ranking falls to a certain level (say, 10th in the ranking) and not rotate would be appreciated. ------------------------------------ **** IMPORTANT PLEASE READ **** This group is for the discussion between users only.
