Hello FXEgyptian!,

I have attached a code which will exit an open position after 10 minutes. There are many ways to do this - but this is quick and easy.
Tested - working ok!

The picture shows the time calc I use for 10min - the rest of the logic is in the attached file =)

The setting for the calculation is SUM


Let me know if you have any questions?

Hello FXEgyptian,

Sorry I built it with 10min as this would be easy to test in the historical tester with 1 min data. It was more for the example - I didnt notice you put 3hr above! lol Sorry about that.

So you could change the second parameter to: 10800000 (which is 3 hours in miliseconds).

The .vfx file shows all the steps to get this working for a moving average crossover system. Have a play with that and let me know if anything isnt clear.

Thanks,

DoC
