Hi,

I apologize, if this has been answered already...

But how do you enter on the same bar once your entry blocks have fired?



I understand that "Close" would make you enter on the next bar, which on a D chart would be next session.

I tried to use High/Low crosses X as entry trigger, but still I get filled next session.

as well Highest/Lowest ( but that I understand, you only use when talking about several period high/low)

2nd question for filters - the variables must match the main entry condition, for example I can't have, enter long when High crosses X
while filter have Close is greater than X meaning both should have "high" as it's filter, it would create a conflicting statement, correct?

You’d need to calculate at what price your high/low cross would need to occur at, and then issue a limit/stop order for the following bar. WL cannot execute on the same bar as the one being processed.

Yes, it's been. Regarding how to calculate the crossover value on the next bar as Glitch suggests, we advised in Post #6 in another topic:
