Hello.
I would like to use variables in my exit setup. For example, if price crosses below the 6 day low at the time of buying. Is this possible?
Thanks.

Not sure what you are asking. Here's a three day scalper scan(similar to John Carter strategy in TOS):
Close 2 days ago < Close 3 days ago
Close 1 days ago < Close 2 days ago
Close < Close 1 days ago

I'm copying a post I just made on this topic:
This cannot currently be done. It has been requested numerous times but SF has no plans to implement anything like this (any variable that stores the value of another variable for a specific date).
StrataSearch has a function that does this - ValueWhen(). It will calculate the specific value you want for a given date, usually the date of signal generation, but it can look back beyond that as well.
