I'm trying to implement a monthly system that buys the top 3 ETFs on a certain day of the month. If I just use the formula Rule1 = (Day()) == (1)); sometimes I don't get a buy signal because the first trading day of the month is either on a weekend or a holiday. How can I determine if this is the case?

Rule1 = Day() > 1 and Day() < 7;

Best Answer
You can also use:
rule1 = month() != ref(month(), 1);

What if I want to buy/sell on another trading day of the month (e.g. eighteenth day of the month)?

rule1 = month() != ref(month(), 1);
rule1 = ref(month(), 7); // For the eighteenth day of the month

I don't understand why it would work, can you explain this simple code?

My mistake. It should be:
rule1 = month() != ref(month(), 1);
buy = ref(rule1, 6); // For the bar number 7 after the new month
