Trades not firing real time

[gg80108]

Did a little investigation.. my trades also don't fire under using replay data for the day.. The trades do fire and show up if I just reload the historical data..
I added an update to the indicator variable I'm calling that I'm calling but didn't help... The long white line on the indicator is the trigger.

public DataSeries Plot0
{
get { Update();return Values[0]; }

}

This fails on a 4 range chart,, but fires ok on a 11 range chart..

Hello,

Thank you for your forum post

Do you have another thread on this or is this the first one?

If this is the first one we will need some more information on this to be of further assistance.

Have you tried adding TraceOrders = True to the Initialize method and seeing you are getting any orders generated?

Are you getting your entry condition to work in backtesting?

What is the code snippet for your entry condition?

Changed the way indicator results was being called to "sampleBool series syntax", and works good now..

Was wrong still fails to place trades RT.. here is my code attached

Hello,

Are any trades being places live or no trades at all?

I look forward to assisting you further.

[gg80108]

no trades at all,, also on a replay of data I recorded, doesn't fire either.

You would need to debug your code for working in CalculateOnBarClose = false, the bool DarvisSell for example is constantly false for me here in MR testing.

Hello,

I'm reviewing your strategy now.

I am not seeing any Print statements however.

What you need to do is start adding Print() Statements to check the executions to see where we are getting caught up when running live.Make sure that values are what you expect as the entry logic to submit your orders is currently not evaluating to true to submit the orders when running live.

Let me know if you still running into issue and I can look into further.

It seems there no way with NT to backtest or day replay with CalculateOnBarClose = false,,,, since all the backtesting seems to default to CalculateOnBarClose = true? Is this correct?

[NinjaTrader_Bertrand]

Correct, backtesting on historical data is done with CalculateOnBarClose = true, as the intrabar formation of the bar would not be known, however you could simulate updates on each tick in Market Replay, as this is recorded realtime data, as such the intrabar formation is there.

[gg80108]

Seems like since I am using FirstTickofBar with CalculateOnBarClose = false,, I need something in my code like
if(Historical)
BarIndex = 0; //CalculateOnBarClose = true
else
BarIndex = 1; //FirstTickOfBar CalculateOnBarClose = false
To keep my back stats somewhat real..

[NinjaTrader_Bertrand]

Yes, that would be correct, when working in FirstTickOfBar using CalculateOnBarClose = false you would need to reference one bar further back normally, to makeup calling your triggers on the open tick of the new bar instead on the close of the last one.
