Problem of entry

[germano]

Hi,

Sorry: I always have problems.

I want sell when the current bid price is equals the previous price close, but the formula does not work. Someone know me indicate the error?

if(GetCurrentBid() == Close[1])
EnterShort();

Thank

germano, you're welcome - is this for backtesting or realtime trading? In backtesting GetCurrentBid() would be replaced with the Close value, so you this might be different from what you expect - http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/H...urrentBid.html

Bertrand, thank you for your reply. It is for realtime trading.

[NinjaTrader_Bertrand]

Ok, then please post the full code you have now, in a quick test I got realtime executions for long and short trades using live ES data. Do you notice any errors in the Log tab of the Control Center?

[germano]

The strategy works, but opens the trade to the bid price corresponding to the closure of many candles ago and not to the closure of the previous candle.

[NinjaTrader_Bertrand]

That would depend on how you had it coded in, your example would take the Close one bar ago as reference and then place the trade on the next bar open with CalculateOnBarClose set to true. Are you talking about this 'delay'? If not, then please post a screenshot to illustrate what you see - thanks!
