Entries & Exits Problem

[xbaha]

i have a big problem understanding how NT handling Entries and Exits!

i know that NT will not take long & short at the same bar, but look at below

for example:
Example1:
if (true)
{
EnterShortLimit(0,false,100,sellp,"Short");
ExitShortLimit(buyp,"ExitS");
}

Example2:
if (true)
{
EnterShortLimit(0,false,100,sellp,"Short");
EnterLongLimit(0,false,100,buyp,"Long");
}

both examples will enter short, but example 1, will exit @ buyp limit, and example 2 should exit & reverse @ buyp limit.

What actually happens when i run both is that, Example 2 initiate a short limit, and later on exit the position & enter long @ buyp limit.
but in Example 1, i am running the same chart, i dont see the system exiting at the point where in example 2 exited and entered long.

any clarification why such thing is happening??

thanks.

Hello, in your example1 you're not tyeing the signal names correctly together, try : ExitShortLimit(buyp, "ExitShort", "Short").

When working with non market orders in the managed approach you also have to aware of the internal handling rules used :
