Var: NLong("Long ");
NLong = NLong + NumToStr(currentbar, 0);
buy(NLong) next bar market;

Order with string sentense name

Var: NLong("Long ");
NLong = NLong + NumToStr(currentbar, 0);
buy(NLong + " Limit") next bar  с limit;

Order with compound sentence name

Var: NLong("Long ");
NLong = NLo`ng + NumToStr(currentbar, 0);
buy (NLong + " at " + NumToStr(c, 2) + " Limit") next bar c limit;

Exit From Entry structure

Var: Nl("Long ");
buy (Nl + "Entry")  5 shares next bar c limit;
sell (Nl + "SL Exit" + " Low bar") from Entry(Nl + "Entry")  next bar l stop;

Note 1

Note 2

Make sure that appropriate names are used for "Exit From Entry" logic. If there's no any order with the set name - position won't be closed.
