Position best price level

[cgeorgan]

Is there a quick and easy method within Ninja to track a position's best price level reached? I've been searching but can't seem to find one...

Hello cgeorgan,

Maybe something like this:
double highestHighInTrade = MAX(High, BarsSinceEntry())[0];

Hello cgeorgan,

Maybe something like this:
double highestHighInTrade = MAX(High, BarsSinceEntry())[0];

Ahhh...good deal - that's what I was looking for. TY!

Update

Hello cgeorgan,

Maybe something like this:
double highestHighInTrade = MAX(High, BarsSinceEntry())[0];

I have a functional update for anybody who happens across this thread in the future:

BarsSinceEntry appears to be pretty resource intensive. On a tick level, you're going to run into your resource limit pretty fast, especially on backtesting.

The simpler solution is to keep a container variable that starts at zero, then run this simple code:

                    if (Position.MarketPosition != MarketPosition.Flat)
                    {
                        if(Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Long)
                        {
                            if(High[0] > positionBestPriceLevel)
                                positionBestPriceLevel = High[0];
                        }
                        if(Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Short)
                        {
                            if(Low[0] < positionBestPriceLevel)
                                positionBestPriceLevel = Low[0];
                        }    
                    }

When you get a position update to flat, be sure to reset positionBestPriceLevel to zero.
