Topic: Trailing Stop Limit but always close at the end of the week regardless

I am using the "Trailing Stop Limit" as an exit but I would also like to close the position at the end of the week to avoid the weekend gap. I can't seem to be able to do that as the logic will not allow me to add it which ever way round I try and set it up. If I choose week closing I cannot add a trailing stop. Any ideas?

Re: Trailing Stop Limit but always close at the end of the week regardless

I plan to move all Stop / Limit indicators from closing logic of the strategy to a separate place as Permanent Protection now. In that way, they'll work in parallel of the strategy closing logic and will not take additional bar.

For example, I can add additional close slot named "Alternative Exit" and to put there
Stop Loss,
Take Profit,
Break Even,
N bars exit
...
