referencing exitprice in strategy

[hifreq]

How does one use the exitprice found on the performance table as a reference in a strategy?

Thank you very much for any specifics you can send along.

hilfreq, you can work with the TradeClass for this - http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/H...radeClass.html

exitprice?

Truth is....when I look at the tradeclass, I don't see clearly how this ties back to the exitprice specifically, and how I can call that variable in my code. I would like to use the exitprice as a reference, for example, to re-enter a trade.

Again, I feel confident that since the exitprice is captured and displayed on the performance table, it must be available as a specific value to use in the code.

If you could help me tie these two pieces together a little more explicitly, I would be most grateful.

Thanks again!!

You can try something like this after your entry / exit triggers -

 
if (Performance.RealtimeTrades.Count > 0) 
{ 
Trade lastTrade =  [FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2]Performance.RealtimeTrades[Performance.RealtimeTrades.Count - [/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2][COLOR=#800080][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2][COLOR=#800080][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2][COLOR=#800080]1[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2]];
[/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT] 
double lastExit = lastTrade.Exit.Price; 
 
Print("The last trade's exit is " + lastExit); 
}

Bertrand,

Thank you for this snippet.

Wouldn't [0] mean the first trade of the session? Shouldn't it be count-1?

Thanks,

Trade lastTrade = Performance.RealtimeTrades[0];

}

Thanks for spotting this r2kTrader, you're correct - highest values are the most recent ones, will correct the snippet.
