Hello, is there a way to reference the entry bar in the Spreadsheet formula study? Currently, this is available in the Spreadsheet Study, but I am unable to achieve it in the Spreadsheet Formula Study. |

Sorry, but we are not understanding what you mean exactly by "Entry Bar". Do you mean the Open of a bar, or a specific bar in the chart?

By entry bar - I meant the bar in which the order was filled as shown in the attached screenshot.

There is not a way to get at that information directly. You would have to use the Spreadsheet System for Trading to get the information and then get what you need out of that Spreadsheet.

You could add the Trading: Position Quantity study and find the bar with a change in quantity with the Spreadsheet Formula study, then have it return a value at that bar. Like this:=IF(ID1.SG1<>ID1.SG1[-1],C,ID5.SG1[-1]) This returns the persistent Close price of the bar where the entry was made, until flat where it goes to zero. where ID1 is the Trading: Position Quantity study and ID5 is the Spreadsheet Formula study Or you could add the Trading: Position Average Price study use it's price output as the persistent entry price, until flat where it goes to zero. |
