I want to reference the value of a study upon entry. How do I go about doing that?

For example: the value of the upper bolinger band upon entry.

thank you,

Eric

We do not understand this. Reference the study from where?

Apologies, I should have been more clear:

I want to be able to use the value of a study at entry as part of my formula for exit.

for example:

Exit formula

if price @ entry > Upper Bolinger @ entry then exit at X
if price @ entry < Upper Bolinger @ entry then exit at Y

I can reference price at entry from column J, but how do I reference the value of the upper bolinger band at entry?

thank you

OK we understand. This is going to be involved and is outside the scope of our support.


Basically you would have to get the time of the order entry, and then reference the study value at that time in the Sheet using the date-times in column A.
