Begin

The printable version is no longer supported and may have rendering errors. Please update your browser bookmarks and please use the default browser print function instead.

Used in combination with End to group instructions for conditional execution; a Begin must always be followed by an End.

Usage

CS Begin
  I1;
  I2;
  I3;
End;

Where:

CS - conditional statement.

I - conditional instructions.

Notes

Begin and End can be used with Then, Else, For, and While conditional statements.
Begin should not be followed by a semicolon (;), code lines within an instruction group should end with a semicolon (;), and only the last instance of End within the same conditional execution statement should be followed by a semicolon (;).

Example

If UpTrend is true then buy, otherwise sell short:

If UpTrend = True Then Begin
  Buy Next Bar Market;
End
Else Begin
  SellShort Next Bar Market;
End;
