Using ExitLong()

[trader_rick]

Hi guys,

I am using;

ExitLong(int barsInProgressIndex, int quantity, string signalName, string fromEntrySignal)

My question is;

If no match is found for fromEntrySignal what is the result of calling this function? Will the complete position be exited regardless of the quantity specified, will only the specified quantity be exited or will no exit at all take place?

thanks

No exit will occur since there is no match for the fromEntrySignal parameter. The method will simply be ignored.

Thanks,

Is the same also true of

SetProfitTarget(string fromEntrySignal, CalculationMode mode, double value)

and

SetStopLoss(string fromEntrySignal, CalculationMode mode, double value, bool simulated)

?

True, if you reference a non matching 'FromEntrySignal' name it will be ignored.
