Adding to a long position?

[hoyje]

Let say I use this strategy to enter a long position:

protected override void Initialize()
{
    Add("^SP500", PeriodType.Day, 1); 	
    SetStopLoss("", CalculationMode.Percent, 10, false);
    CalculateOnBarClose = true;
}

protected override void OnBarUpdate()
 {
     if (IsIndexCloseHigherThenAverageIndexClose &&
        IsHighHigherThenAverageClose &&
        IsHighHigherThenHighestHigh)
        EnterLong();
			
     if (IsLowLowerThenLowestLow)
	ExitLong();
}

private bool IsIndexCloseHigherThenAverageIndexClose
{
	get 
	{ 
		return Closes[1][0] > SMA(BarsArray[1], 200).Close[0]; 
	}
}
		
private bool IsHighHigherThenAverageClose
{
	get 
	{ 
		return High[0] > SMA(High, 200)[0]; 
	}
}

private bool IsHighHigherThenHighestHigh
{
        get 
        { 
                 return High[0] > MAX(High, 50)[1]; 
        }
}
		
private bool IsLowLowerThenLowestLow
{
        get 
        { 
                 return Low[0] < MIN(Low, 20)[1]; 
        }
}

But now after I have enter a long position I wanna add more to the long position when its go up 5% of the initial long position and I wanna do this 5 times. How can I do it?

Hello,

You can use Position.Avg price to determine when the position has reached 5%

if (Close[0] >= Position.AvgPrice * (1+0.05))

Once this condition has been met, you can use EnterLong() again to scale up.
