PosTradeEntryBar(PosAgo,TradeNumber)

Where:

PosAgo - a numerical expression, specifying the position:
0 - open position;
1 - one position back (the last position closed);
2 - two positions back, etc.
TradeNumber - a numerical expression, specifying the number of trade (zero-based).

Notes

  • This function can only be used in signals.
  • To retrieve the total number of trades in specified position use PosTradeCount.
  • Use PosTradeExitBar to get the bar number of the bar on which the exit order happened.

Example

PosTradeEntryBar(0, 1);

Will return a value of 25 for the second trade of the open position, if this trade was opened on 25th bar.
