What it does

Counts bars of the strategy's timeframe since the last pick.

What happens

Read from the engine's live execution context each candle — it reflects the current run (position, equity, time, trade history), not a computed indicator.

When to use

Only enter early in the holding period, or tighten exits as the next pick approaches.

Gotchas

  • Reads -1 when the strategy runs on its own.
  • Counts the strategy's timeframe, not days.
