I have a strategy where it places buy stop orders when the close of the current bar satisfies some conditions.
I have two questions and hoping somebody can clarify...
1) When the conditions are first satisfied at the close of a bar and the buy stop order is placed, what is the duration of the order? I mean how long does the order stay active. Until the close of the current bar or until it is executed or canceled.
2) Once the current bar close satisfies the conditions to place a buy stop order, how do I prevent subsequent bar closes that satisfy the same conditions from placing the same order?
Thanks for your help!
