Thanks Patrick,

Could I still get some help? I am quite new in NT ATM programming.
How would you program this rule: after a long tentry the next one must be short, and vice versa?

Thanks.

Hello Borsz,

Thank you for your post.

The condition would need to know the previous position and then determine if a new position would take place. We would need an initial order placement though, and then we can set this new variable to long or short for the previous position:

        #region Variables		
        private string prevPosition = "";
        #endregion

        
        protected override void Initialize()
        {
           	
        }
		
		protected override void OnBarUpdate()
		{	
			// Ensure we are flat to avoid reversals caused by the prevPosition string.
			if(Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Flat)
			{
				// Place initial trade.
				if(prevPosition == null) // prevPosition will initially be null.
				{
					// Calculate long or short trade.
				}
				
				// Place trade based on previous position.
				if(prevPosition == "long")
				{
					// Go short.
				}
				if(prevPosition == "short")
				{
					// Go long.
				}
			}
		}
	
		protected override void OnPositionUpdate(IPosition position)
		{
			// Calculate previous position.
			if(Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Long)
				prevPosition = "long";
			else if(Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Short)
				prevPosition = "short";
		}
