Hi missyeam,

Thanks for posting in our forum. You can use a flag. See an example 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.AlaskanStandardTime, AccessRights = AccessRights.None)]
    public class NewcBot : Robot
    {

        bool _orderExecuted;
        bool _conditionMet;
        protected override void OnStart()
        {

        }

        protected override void OnBar()
        {
            //Set your condition
            // _conditionMet = ...
            if (!_orderExecuted && _conditionMet)
            {
                _orderExecuted = true;
                //Execute your trading
            }

        }

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

Best Regards,

I tried incorporating the above in one of my cbots and an error occurred showing this:

Error CS0649: Field 'cAlgo.Robots.BlueMethDemoExpiration._conditionMet' is never assigned to, and will always have its default value false

I guess the part where you wrote" _conditionMet = ..." means something and needs to be applied to the condition. However, I am not certain how. Assistance with a more specific sample would be highly appreciated.
