Trade at Signal-Points in the Space

[Deogenes]

Hi there,

i have problems to find out the right kind of order. As you can see in my Chart i have some

HMA Dots in the space. If Price cross below or above i want just take the trade at the points

in the space. How can i make this possible ?

Deogenes, you could place for example limit order at those dots calculated by your script, but the fill would of course be determined by market action and could not occur 'in the space'.

Bertrand,

i know, this is the problem. Is there nothing tricky?

Sorry, I might not follow you here exactly - you know at which Y value the dot is placed, so you can use the same value to submit a limit order at this price, per default this will expire on the following bar, so if you're not filled and still wish to take the signal you have 2 options then, either resubmit or use the more advanced overloads allowing you to submit and order with liveUntilCancelled set to 'true' - of course you would then in turn need to take care to cancel the order if the trade is not interesting for you anymore. However fills will be determined by the market filling your price point, it cannot fill you at the time and pricde of your original dot, it sounds to me like this would be something you expect here to happen...

Bertrand,

a friend of mine has programmed this item in TradeSignal some years ago. I come back as soon as i find it on my second Computer, witch is currently not here. I really don´t know how he made it, but he made it.

Ok, sounds good - if you had this programmed on TradeSignal it should be possible to port over to NT as well.
