signal name for BarsSinceExit

[binwang2]

Hello,
When i pass in empty string "" for signal name in BarsSinceExit like (2, "",0), will it reference the last exit of the latest signal name from multiple exit signal names?

The empty string "" just references the default signal name, so in your multiple signal setup, please enter the signal name you want to refer to.

somewhat related question

If this is one line of a strategy:

SetStopLoss(CalculationMode.Ticks,4);

and the stop is indeed hit (in simulator), does NT consider
this an 'exit' if I use BarsSinceExit() as well in my coding?
Or is this not considered an exit that BarsSinceExit() will see?

Stephen, it should count as an exit. Are you experiencing something else?

Thanks. Just the usual coding confusion.
I'll see if I can make some progress on my
own for the moment.
