  Hello Traders

  Please advise if there is a code (or a way) for: ‘Ignore’ or ‘Do Nothing’

  So for example:
  DownTrend = EMA < EMA[3]

  IF DownTrend THEN
  Do ‘Nothing’
  Else
  Buy 2 contract at market.

  Thank you for your help,
  A.

  Hi, if you want to do nothing, you don’t have to code anything 🙂 Please explain what you want to do exactly?

  Hi
  I’m trading Mean Reversion
  and I want to go LONG when the market is in down-trend.
  But some of the times there are false signal to go long.
  The market suddenly go up and then continue the down-trend
  I’m looking for a way to avoid those false signal..
  By telling the strategy: While going down, do nothing../Avoid the signal

  But I’m guessing I can use the ‘NOT’
  Like: IF NOT DownTrend THEN..
