Problems with Set Profit Target?
Hi I have been trying to move my profit targets, but I am experience an interesting phenomena. If I move the profit target, it seems like if I was in a long position, it will exit that position and enter a short position. Would I be better off using an ExitLongLimit instead?

hmm. I just have SetProfitTarget and SetStopLoss on FirstBarOfTick. I put in debugging statements in the method and it's printing out the stop loss and the profit targets correctly. I am also checking the market position and adjusting the targets accordingly.

This is odd. I have EnterLong as the first line of OnBarUpdate and I ran the strategy. I set the session times to 12:00 AM-12:00AM and set the account to Sim101. I have it running on the Simulator feed and nothing clicked in. Are there any other restrictions that are preventing the strategy from entering a trade?
Edit: NM, it seems to have clicked in, however the stop and the profit targets are not showing up.Last edited by mazachan; 09-20-2007, 04:35 PM.

Hi Ray, I think I found the issue(s). For some reason if I call SetTrailStop or SetProfitTarget within a helper function in the class, it would not execute an EnterLong order. Once I moved my logic for changing the stops and profit targets to within OnBarUpdate, it seems to have fixed the problem.
