Hi marwaha1@gmail.com,

See below

using System;
using System.Linq;
using cAlgo.API;
using cAlgo.API.Indicators;
using cAlgo.API.Internals;
using cAlgo.Indicators;

namespace cAlgo.Robots
{
    [Robot(TimeZone = TimeZones.UTC, AccessRights = AccessRights.None)]
    public class NewcBot : Robot
    {
        [Parameter(DefaultValue = 0.0)]
        public double Parameter { get; set; }
        private int _barCount;
        private bool _startCounting;
        protected override void OnStart()
        {
            Positions.Opened += OnPositionsOpened;
        }

        void OnPositionsOpened(PositionOpenedEventArgs obj)
        {
            _startCounting = true;
        }

        protected override void OnBar()
        {
            if (_startCounting)
                _barCount++;
        }

        protected override void OnStop()
        {
            // Put your deinitialization logic here
        }
    }
}

Let me know if this helps,

Best Regards,

Shouldn't the bar counter be after the actual trade execution logic? How about resetting the counter after the trade is closed?

Hi Jan,

Shouldn't the bar counter be after the actual trade execution logic? 

The counter starts after a position is opened as per the requirement

How about resetting the counter after the trade is closed?

This is just an example on how to implement such logic. Further to that, each one needs to adjust it on his cBot logic.
