How orders work in different directions (buy&sell)?

[alexstox]

Hello. I wrote script only for LONG entries. Now I finished with debugging and ready to reflect rules for SELL side. How sell and buy orders work together In NT script? Is it cover each other? Or BUY order just doesn't allow SELL order to enter?

Hello Alex,

Thank you for your post.

If you use EnterLong() and EnterShort() methods, they will close the opposing position and then enter into the direction they are designed for.

For example, my strategy has entered me long but my short condition returns true and I submit EnterShort();. This will close my long position and enter me short at the same time.
