That's the second time it happens

[cozar534]

I don't understand. I think that my code is ok.
I have a MultiTimeFrame code. I'll post to show how it works...
and also the chart to show that the code don't fit to what happens.

Well as you can see, on the backtest, at 18:42 it buys when MACD on RealTime15min is MACD < Avg (from the code its a condition to buy that MACD > Avg).

How can it be possible??

You are likely not evaluating the correct bar. In a backtest you get a signal bar. This bar is not tradeable because it is already closed and as such your order is placed on the open of the next bar. This is important to note.

[cozar534]

So the bar used is 18:39?

[NinjaTrader_JoshP]

I could not tell from the screenshots because they are too small. I suggest you just use Print() so there is no ambiguity in evaluating your values.

[cozar534]

I'm using print but I have to fit the size to uploadable

[NinjaTrader_JoshP]

There is no other way. You need to debug it and that is done with print functions. You will see that the condition is generally true the bar before you see the actual trade. You will also see the actual trade goes in at market open of the next bar.

How can I use the Print()? What should be the code? I'm newbie with the scripts..

Well, i think I fixed that but I'm seeing that the Condition 3 and 4 of the code.. never work.. can anybody explain me why?

[NinjaTrader_JoshP]

cozar,

You need to test the conditions then. You want to first ensure that your conditions are even evaluated to true. Check the values of everything you are trying to check before the if-statement. Then also place a print inside the if-statement to confirm the code actually reaches that point.

[cozar534]

HOw can I do that? Check the values of everything you are trying to check before the if-statement???

[cozar534]

Can you explain please?

[NinjaTrader_JoshP]

Yes cozar. You need to debug it. How else would you know which part of your condition is not working?

[cozar534]

But How can I debug it?

[cozar534]

OK, I see the tip below
