As a rule I try and be very strict about following my buy and sell signals, but there are occasions when the stock climbs/falls that my code doesn't catch. As such I decide to make a purchase or sale that isn't reflected in my back testing. In the past I have just forced the purchase with code by indicating the bar at which I want to make the purchase as indicated below:
CODE:

This of course allows my code to look for the next buy/sell point and my action can be taken into account in the trade history and NET Profit. However this only works if I don't ever change the date range or the scale. What I would prefer to do is instead of indicating the bar at which to make the purchase, I would like to specify the date and time at which the purchase should occur. I can't seem to figure out how to do this though.
Any one out there been down this road before? Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Brian

Eugene,
Thanks, that is great.
Is there a way I can also specify the price I paid or sold the stock for at that date and time?

Oops,
I thought the code wasn't working but I figured out the issue. Thus the reason I deleted the text of this post.
Thanks again for all your help. The code works perfectly.
