Subject: Day of Week problem
Can anyone help with some DayofWeek code?
I'd like to buy at open and sell at the close of a certain day of the 
week. So, using Monday as an example, I write this:
If DayofWeek(Date)=1 then buy at open;
exitlong at close;
However, Easy Language only allows market orders to be placed for the 
*next* bar. The obvious way around this is to write:
If DayofWeek(Date)=5 then buy next bar at open;
However, the "next bar" could be a Tuesday or even a Wednesday.
Is there any way around this, to specify a buy at open and a sell at the 
close of a specified day?
Cheers,
Ian
