Stop loss errors

[raefon72]

Hi Guys,

I am having a problem with multiple entires. When I use the term Firstentry it sets the stop to my entry price not the danchain chanel low. If I dont use the entry name it ignores the stop. If I dont use an entry name when I enter its ok.

 
// If a long position is open, allow for stop loss modification to breakeven
else if (Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Long)
{

barcounter = barcounter +1 ;
if (DonchianChannel(stoptrail).Lower[1]> Position.AvgPrice)
{ 
SetStopLoss("Firstentry", CalculationMode.Price, DonchianChannel(stoptrail).Lower[1] - stoptrailoffset* TickSize , false);
//SetStopLoss("Secondentry", CalculationMode.Price, DonchianChannel(stoptrail).Lower[1] - stoptrailoffset* TickSize , false);
//Print("Firstentry last value= "+(DonchianChannel(stoptrail).Lower[1] - stoptrailoffset* TickSize) + " " + Close[0]+ " " +(Time[0].ToString()) );
}
}

raefon,

The "Firstentry" would tie that stop loss to the entry that has entrance signal string "Firstentry".

What is stoptrailoffset? How is it defined?

[raefon72]

Stoptrailoffset is a private int variable. Its an offset below the low period. Its the entry name that seems to be the problem however.

raefon,

DonchianChannel(stoptrail).Lower[1]> Position.AvgPrice

The DonchainChannel is not necessarily greater than the Position.AvgPrice initially. You would want to set an initial stop loss before you enter the trade.

ramfx,

If you could post your code I'd be happy to take a quick look.
