Pause before trigger

[firlandsfarm]

Some markets can be very volatile (especially in-running horse races) and severe spikes are not infrequent ... is there a way to input a pause to check if a price is real or a spike? I thought I may be able to use one of the price history conditions but can't see that they can help. Does anyone have any thoughts?

It can be done with the use of signals as demonstrated in this automation file

Thanks Dallas, I see the logic (I think!) ... just use a Signal as a 1 second counter, yes?

Yes, by setting a signal every second your in a loss position and increaing the value of that signal each time means you can close when the vlaue reaches a certain number (seconds)
