Simulated Trail Stop Sample Code

[mainstream]

Would someone please post a sample of code that will Compile. Thanks.

SetTrailStop(string fromEntrySignal, CalculationMode mode, double value, bool simulated)

Hello mainstream,

An example of SetTrailStop with all overloads:

SetTrailStop("entryOrderName", CalculationMode.Ticks, 10, false);

Thanks Chelsea.

I reviewed the results using the simulated data feed and the strategy, could you provide some clarification on the following variable and how they will change the behavior of the Simulated Trail Stop -- with examples?

10, false);

My thought was that at 10 tick profit the Simulated Trail Stop will follow 2 ticks behind market price, I suppose i was wrong in that assumption.

When you say Overloads, are you inferring Overfills? That was a question, too, I have not reached that benchmark in development to begin researching Overfills.

Hello mainstream,

Thank you for your response.

The 10 would mean the stop trails behind the market by 10 ticks. The simulated bool allows for a simulated stop loss, if true, will simulate the stop order and submit as market once triggered.

Overloads are passed to methods, in this case the SetTrailStop() method. The overloads being currency, mode, simulated, value, and fromEntrySignal.
