Need help!! Close order on this bar close

Hi!!

Need help please!!

I'm new to programming...and i'm trying to make an EA...
It works fine if i put a cross condition to close an order...

...but...

i would like to tell the EA to close an open order at the close of the current bar....

how can i do it??

If I use Close[0] or iClose function...it seems backtesting that it closes my order at the "tick" close and not at the bar close....

I would like to tell the EA this kind of thing...for example:
"if my sell condition is met...close the order at the close of this current bar"

anyone can tell me how i can do it??

Thanks a lot!!

The easiest way is to do it on the first tick of a new bar, Vol[0] = 1

Thank you, i tried to use

Volume[0]>1

but it closes the order 1 bar later...

Example: My EA opens an order on bar 0 , i want that if my condition is met, it closes the order at the open the next bar (the second bar in the trade), but the code "Volume[0]>1" closes the order at the open of the third bar.....is it possible?

I think TIME might be more relevant.

Time[0] stores the start time of the current live bar so...

At the moment your EA thinks it might want to close the trade at the close of this bar then save Time[0] in to a variable.
Then keep checking it against Time[0].
As soon as a new bar appears Time[0] will be greater than your stored value.

EG.

datetime thisbartime;

if (CloseTradeOnNextOpenCondition ==true)
{
thisbartime = Time[0];
} else thisbartime =0;


if ((thisbartime !=0) && (Time[0] !=thisbartime))
{
//close trade
}

Thank you!!
I'll try it!

I would love to be able to add this to the attached ea, but when I tried my hand, it only reported errors.
Is there any chance you might look at this for me?
I've attached the clean (unmessed around by me) ea.
Here's hoping
Thanks
