Returns a numerical value, indicating the total number of entries for the specified position.

Usage

PosTradeCount(PosBack)

Where:

PosBack - a numerical expression, specifying the position:
0 - open position;
1 - one position back (the last position closed);
2 - two positions back, etc.

Notes

  • This function can only be used in signals. Please note that if there is a single entry and multiple scalping exits, each exit will have its own entry in this case and the count will increase after each partial exit.

Example

PosTradeCount(1);

Will return a value of 2 if there were two separate entries for the most recently closed position.
