Programming easy language to only trade certain days

[dartmus]

If I could find some code for a single array, I am sure I could work it out.

Based on what u described u don't need an array. The date filter can b created via stringing together dates using the reserved word "or".

if d=1160226 or d=1160225 {or d=next d in ur list} then begin
    plot1(c,"c");  // test this in an indicator until you're certain it's working right
    // then move it to a strategy and replace your plots with buy and sell commands
end;

this uses an array but both ways *independently* achieve the same result. Don't use both. Pick the one u prefer.

var: x(0);
array: ohyeah[100](0);

once begin
  ohyeah[1]=1160226;
  ohyeah[2]=1160225;
  // complete this list for all your dates up to your 100th date
  ohyeah[100]=1010203;
end;

for x=1 to 100 begin
  if d=ohyeah[x] then begin
      plot2(c,"c"); // replace this plot with your strategy code
  end;
end;

But u don't need your list of dates from excel. Calculate your excel conditions directly within TS and then all u need is something similar to this

if condition1=true then buy next bar market else if condition2=true then sellshort next bar market;

tis EasyLanguage to learn. Won't take u very long at all and u will b happy.

Wow Dratsum,

Looks like that is what I needed. I can adjust it and play with it for awhile and then I will let you know how it all worked out. I really appreciate it.
