    Cant enter a limit order....

    I just wrote a small strategy to learn ninja script. Based on existing MA crossover strategy.... It is not working. I cant scale out of a position. My limit orders got lost.

    C#
    Code:

    01/09/2009 14:39:12 Ignored PlaceOrder() method: Action=BuyToCover OrderType=Limit Quantity=1 LimitPrice=1022.50 StopPrice=0 SignalName='' FromEntrySignal='' Reason='This was an exit order but no position exists to exit'

    I was a bit annoyed that order system is not as one would expect it to be..... Market, Stop, Limit, StopLimit. What else would you need.... Hope in NT7 we will have something more realistic.

    Anyway. I thought that might be the position become effective on next bar, so I modified code:

    I have same rejection reason in the trace....

    Is there a sample code to place a limit order without learning rocket science?

      maxima, please see the attached reference sample link, to scale out you would need to scale in first - http://www.ninjatrader-support2.com/...ead.php?t=3751
