Running related strategies at the same time

[abarb26]

I'm working with the following two strategies:

First strategy: calculates at bar close and generates the signals.

Second strategy: calculates tick by tick and places a trailing stop when "current market position = long/short" (from first strategy) . I have to create a second strategy since the trailing stop for the first one would calculate at bar close and I need it tick by tick.

The problem is that the second strategy is not generating the trailing stop when there is a market position. How can I fix this?

Thanks in advance

abarb26, communication between strategies is unfortunately not supported. A strategy only knows about positions opened by itself, so it doesn't read in other market positions. There is a reference sample that goes over how to run some calculations every tick while running the main logic every bar, which is exactly what you're looking for.

Thanks Austin. I'll look into it.
