Build up a position over a specific time period

Build up a position over a specific time period

I would like to have strategy where for a specific symbol, on fixed time intervals additional shares are bought.
Example : when a certain condition is met buy 500$ of the same symbol every week for the period of 2 months.
The idea is to simulate the build up of a position over a timeperiod instead of buying everything at once.
What is the easiest way to achieve this ?

Hi,

maybe these two money management scripts might help:
