Combine Two Custom Studies (second only occurs if first is triggered)

[cmcgivern]

I have two custom studies that I would like to create as a pair. The first would be entry criteria for a trade and the second would be exit criteria. I currently have them separately but the second study is basic enough that it shows separate from the entry criteria. I would like for it to only show if the entry criteria is present. Here's a basic summary of the criteria (I'll post the code at the end):

ENTRY STUDY: Looks for 3 consecutive green candles, followed by a big red candle, then price breaks below red candle's low. Must happen when SMA60 is flat.
EXIT STUDY: Looks for 4 bars making lower lows, followed by 2 bars making higher lows.

Is it possible to have the exit study only trigger if the entry criteria is met? I understand that I cannot make reference to custom studies in ToS but the things I've tried when connecting them just isn't working. They do work separately.
