Coding Help needed

{I could use some help on how to correctly code the
situation below:

1.  The position that just went flat was a short
trade.
2.  The exit used was ExitShort at Highest(h,8);
3.  I want the LowSignal to be the value of the low on
the exit date.
4.  If a new higher high occurs then I want the
LowSignal to be the low of the new high. 	
5.  If two days after a Highest(h,8) the close of the
current day is < LowSignal then the 
    instructions are to go short 1 tick below of
today's low. 

What I wrote below does not work, can anyone help on
this?}

Var:Prevtrade(0),HighPrice(0),LowSignal(0)

If @MarketPosition = +1 then prevtrade = +1; 
If @MarketPosition = -1 then prevtrade = -1; 

If (prevtrade=-1) and High=Highest(h,8) then
LowSignal=low;{If the previous trade 
was a short trade and the High was the highest(h,8)
then LowSignal=low of that bar.}

{If two days later the Close is < LowSignal then go
short 1 tick below the low of today.}


If  (prevtrade=-1) and Close < LowSignal[2]
    then sell("se.ReEnter") at low - 1 point stop;
