    Trailingstop without waiting the end of the bar

    Hi

    i have a script giving me signals CalculateOnBarClose = true, however, within my script i have a trailing stop like that

    // TRAILING STOP
    if (Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Long && High[0] >= targetOrder.LimitPrice - 2*TickSize)
    {
    // Checks to see if our Stop Order has been submitted already
    if (stopOrderLong != null && stopOrderLong.StopPrice < Position.AvgPrice)
    {
    // Modifies stop-loss to breakeven
    stopOrderLong = ExitLongStop(0, true, stopOrderLong.Quantity, Position.AvgPrice+2*TickSize, "Trailing Stop div haussiere 1", "divergence haussiere 1");
    }
    }


    My problem is that to move the stopOrderLong, the script wait the close of [0], how is it possible to move the stopOrderLong in live, without waiting the end of the bar ?

    Thx
    Thomas

    Hello Thomas79,
    Thanks for your note.

    You can use the FirstTickOfBar property to separate the logic where the signals will be generated at the end of the bar while the stops will be updated tick by tick.

    Please refer to this sample code which further illustrates the scenario.
