Stop Loss for Long/Short

[zachj]

You need a seperate TrailStop and ProfitTarget for the long and short but does the short and long use the same StopLoss seeing the stop is calculated from a flat position? And does it matter where in the strategy code I place the below code, does it have to be before the long and short entry?

if ((BarsInProgress == 0) && (Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Flat))
{
SetStopLoss(CalculationMode.Percent, stoppercent);
}

Zach, is this for a dynamic or static stop loss? For a static I would just put the set call in Initialize(), if dynamic then you would want to set the stop before entry, as it's directly attached to the incoming execution.
