I notice there were no responses to your request.  You may have since worked out what you wish to achieve by now.

If not , if you think in terms of trading days in the future for a trigger to go off instead of Calendar days.

Have a look at the code for the earlier post below and I think you can get to where you want.

Set a trigger or marker to go off at the last or next bar after the future period calculated by that indicator, and it should work.  You can remove some of the other script not needed for your application.

	I am wanting to write a formula to determine force exit date -- lets say after 90 days that takes into account weekends (and p/hols). Appreciate any inputs I have used dateadd function as below ... for simple 9 day force exit ( in for 9 days then exit the following day) TriggerDate:=(now); BidDate:= dateadd(1,TriggerDate); BidDay:=DAYOFWEEK(BidDate); if (BidDay = 1,dateadd(13,BidDate),dateadd(13,BidDate)) Can calculate this easier enough in excel but was hoping to write it into script within scans
