Thanks Maximo,

Many thanks, understand the mistakes in my code now. Shame BullScript does not allow placement of text anywhere on the screen (like MetaTrader does) that would allow some very nice info to be displayed on screen.

Thanks again

Okay this should do it.
 

Purchasedate:=inputdate("Purchase Date");

Bars:=datediff("D", Purchasedate, systemdate) + 1;

[linestyle=Text; textalign=Above,Center; target=price]

if(barnumber=lastvalue(barnumber), int(Bars) + " ", undefined);

High;

Hi,

I'm trying to write a simple Indicator that will show on the chart how many days since a trade has been entered. It doesn't work & I cannot get the syntax right so would apprecaiate any help.

Code I have  ...

td:=inputdate("Trade Date");
txt:=if(barnumber=lastvalue(barnumber),datediff(td,now)+"Days in Trade",undefined);

[target=price]
[linestyle=text]
txt;
