Who else can help? How to make a pause in ticks or candlesticks (bars), not to fall asleep (Sleep), namely, for example, after closing a deal 100 bars do not trade, do nothing, so that the function works in the tester and on the real.

find the last closed order in the history with your magician and symbol

the time of closing will be available for this order

find out the current time every tick and subtract this time from the found time of a closed order and compare it with what you need, even in bars - a bar has an open time and the timeframe, or just in seconds

the only problem is the first order, when determining the last closed order, if it has not been found in the history, we should return 0, i.e. 1970.01.01.

I will not write the code - it should be in the KIM functions how to find the last closed order

You better tell me how it works.

int WaitXBars = 100;

datetime signalTime = TimeCurrent();

if (iBarShift(NULL,0, signalTime) < 100) return; // to skip.

It won't work in the tester. And what you've written is complicated and repulsive.

input int WaitXBars = 100;
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
void OnStart()
{
   int WaitXBarsInSec = PeriodSeconds() * WaitXBars;
   if(TimeCurrent() - LastOrderCloseTime() > WaitXBarsinSec)

I have nothing against it, wait, maybe someone will suggest a simpler way, I suggested the most reliable way

your current bar is always zero
and it's always less than 100, since NULL is less than STA
you were written that you need time of last closed position
and even specified where to look

there's even a function which returns bar number, you're all set

If possible, send me an example with the code on the deal, I have not found anything on the internet

and it is always less than 100, because zero is less than CTA

i can't understand it. where is the number of pending bars?

[Порт-моне тв]

Igor Makanu:

number ofwaitingbarsthen?

[Iurii Tokman]

Порт-моне тв:
I don't understand, what is thenumber of bars towait for?

your example already says
only the time needs to be changed
