Stop Loss price modification

[stefy]

I used your Sample Price Modification Strategy to change SetStopLoss() prices. Since I need to use different Price based stop losses for the Long and Short Position, I thought to use the overload with the "from Entry Signal" string, but in this way the price modification stopped to work.
Here is my code:

if (Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Flat)

{
SetStopLoss("Long", CalculationMode.Price, Min, false);
}

else if (Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Long)
{

if (Close[0] > Position.AvgPrice + MyInput0 * TickSize)
{
SetStopLoss("Long", CalculationMode.Price, Position.AvgPrice, false);
}
}



if (Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Flat)
{
SetStopLoss("Short", CalculationMode.Price, Max, false);
}

else if (Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Short)
{

if (Close[0] < Position.AvgPrice - MyInput0 * TickSize)
{
SetStopLoss("Short", CalculationMode.Price, Position.AvgPrice, false);
}
}

Something is wrong because I was running optimizations before successfully, with the new overload method for SetStopLoss I get the same results for each parameter.

Thank you

Hi Stefy,

Thanks for your post.

Please add TraceOrders = True to your Initialize code section.

This way you can view all your stop loss modifications in the output window of the Control Center, which makes it easier to debug your code and see where you need to make a change.
