How can I Use the wizard and have the strategy exit when cci crosses -+100

I have set the wizard in following condition : cci (16) to crossbelow numeric value 100 to exit ....but it does not exit it waits to hit the stoploss

I have also use the if cci one bar ago was above 100 and now its below 100 exit
same ressults.....What am I doing wrong?

Hello,

Thanks for your forum post.

You would need to use ExitLong() and setup a condition to trigger. So use a new a new set in the strategy wizard to build this exit condition. If CCI indicator CrossAbove as your center condition and on the right do Misc->Numeric Value and then plug in 100 as the numeric value.

Then in the do the following: setup the ExitLong() to take place when this occurs.

Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

Brett,
Thanks for you quik reply!

This is what I have in my view code:

// Condition set 2
if (CrossBelow(CCI(Exitcci), 100, 1))
{
ExitLong("exitlong100cross", "exitlong100cross");

exitcci i use either 16 to 20

Hello,

Looks about right. You may want to add in one more condition to onnly trigger if the Strategy Position is Long then you want to trigger ExitShort however this is optional. You will need to set up this same exit conditions for short if your strategy also goes short.

Hello,

Suggest adding Print Statements to see what code gets executed when to check to see if your condition ever becomes true.

Add this under Do the following-> Misc-> Print To Output window.

Put some message in here to see if it even gets executed or not. Then troubleshoot from there.

If you still cant get it please post your complete strategy and i will get it a quick run on my side.

I look forward to assisting you further.

Hello,

I do not see Print To Output window in Misc.....is it because I am using nt 6.5?

[NinjaTrader_Brett]

Hello,

Its there in 6.5, just make sure you are clicking on the Add button for the Do The following section not the when the following conditions occur section.

Hello Kian,

This is for defining conditions. You have to click OK on this box, and printing output is one of the actions you can take. Please see attached screenshot.
