How to enter 2 contracts only on Tuesday

[wallsteetking]

How would I setup Ninjatrader to take 2 contracts on Tuesday and any other day it should only trade with 1 contract.

Hello wallsteetking,

Thanks for your post.

You could try something like the following:

int quantity = 1;

if (Time[0].DayOfWeek == DayOfWeek.Monday)
{
quantity = 2;
}

EnterLong(quantity, "myLong");

how/where can i put this code inside a strategy that I have already build???

Hello,

I would recommend placing the code at the top of OnBarUpdate. You will need to replace the number of quantity on any Enter calls you have with the variable quantity.

Also, the code I posted earlier would work on Mondays. That was my mistake.

Instead you want Time[0].DayOfWeek == DayOfWeek.Tuesday.
