wildcard for dynamic signalName

[dave_b_quickc]

I'm coding a strategy that enters pullbacks in a trend, adding on each pullback until the trend ends (or maximum size is reached). Entries are named dynamically, something like this:

string myName = "myLONG" + myCounter; // myCounter is an integer
if ( mySetup )
{
EnterLong( myName ); // name this entry myLONGn
myCounter++;
}

I need to use a signalName in my exit like myLONGn where n is an integer wildcard. What do I use for the wildcard?

Thanks!

dave_b_quickc,

You would need to place in a valid "n" value. You need to keep track of which signal names are active and just call the appropriate one you want to exit.

OK, I should have realized that each unique signalName will require a unique exit order unless the strategy exits all at once with an un-named exit order.

Maybe I was complicating my strategy too much. It had 4 different types of entry per trend and one of them was using dynamic signalNames for multiple repetitions of the same signal. Perhaps I can accomplish what I need by taking the trend definition from my strategy and making it an indicator, and saving each type of entry into the trend as separate strategies.

Thanks for the clue.
