Reverse Logic (short) question

[ericadam]

What is the code for the reverse logic of the EnterLong on this snippet of straetgy code taken from: http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/H...lPressure.html ------------------------------------------ protected override void OnBarUpdate() { // Looking for a long breakout signal if (Close[0] > DonchianChannel(20).Upper[5]) { // !! See notes below !! if (Historical || BuySellPressure().BuyPressure[0] > 70) EnterLong(); } } ------------------------------------------ How would it be coded to go short & cover a long position lets say and vise versa?

Hello,

This is basically the opposite of what you have below:

if (Close[0] < DonchianChannel(20).Lower[5])
{
if (Historical || BuySellPressure().SellPressure[0] > 70)
EnterShort();
}

Please note that BuySellPressure will only work in real-time operation and not in backtesting.

Thanks for the reply. I got that far. Let me correct my initial question. How is the code structured (nested, i think) so that it looks to see if the long condition exists first and go long (and/or cover a short), otherwise looks for the short condition and goes short (and/or to cover a long)

Hello,


You are on the right track. Do something like this:


if(....)
EnterLong();
else if(....)
EnterShort();
