parabolic stop

[tonynt]

Hello,

I thought I haved solved all questions for the strategy. Now it occurs that the stoploss doesn´t work as stop but it closes in a winning position because it uses the upper parabolic as "stop". How can I avoid this and what do I have to change in the stoploss variable so that only lower parabolic works as stoploss (for longs of course). My stoploss now is

stop1=ParabolicSAR(0.02, 0.2, 0.02)[0];
SetStopLoss("LG1", CalculationMode.Price, stop1, false);

In the attached screenshot you can see what I mean - the strategy should use the (lower) parabolic as stop - of course it does - but it also closes winners at upper.

Thanks
Tony

Tony, I believe this is working as expected, because there is only one parabolic output. It will spit out a price either above or below the current bars, as dictated by the indicator's logic. Have you tried setting TraceOrders = true in Initialize() to see what prices the stops are being submitted at? Please also print out the parabolicSAR value as well to see if the prices match.
