Going Long as soon as the strategy starts

[edgeliner]

I took Josh's advice and tried to use

if (Historical)
return;

if (Current == 1)
EnterLong();

That doesn't work, and if I replace if(Current ==1) with something like:

if (Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Flat)

then it enters every time my strategy exits the long position.

What I am trying to do is go long as soon as I start the strategy with conditions that exit the position, and I only want it to happen only once???

I also would like to to it as soon as I start the strategy and not OnBarClose, but it always seems to occur on the close of the bar????

Perhaps there is a command that will stop a strategy from running after a condition is met??? Anyone know??

When a condition is true, just return out of any method (OnBarUpdate) that executes strategy logic.

What the heck does that mean????

if (<condition-is-true>)
