using different stop loss levels

[dafonseca]

I want to use different stopLossNumber (below) depending on close1 =intrument[1]. priorClose.
As I understand, setStop is defined on void Initialized(), therefore befora OnBarUptade (where I define close1).
How can I handle to set something like below structure? (Is it possible to define close1 on Initialize()?)

if close1>X
set stopLossNumber =y
else
set stopLossNumber =z

SetStopLoss("", CalculationMode.Percent, stopLossNumber, false);
SetProfitTarget("", CalculationMode.Percent, stopGainNumber);

I ve tried the strategy below but it did not work,, Any clue?
Does Realtimestrades considers only the open position? or all positions of the day?
How can I control an isolated position?
if (Performance.RealtimeTrades.TradesPerformance.Perc ent.CumProfit < - stopLevelMovel)
{
ExitLong("stoptest");
}

You won't be able to get the close in Initialize() but you can use Set methods within OnBarUpdate to dynamically update your targets/stops and are not required to set them in Initialize()

We do suggest you set them in Initialize() if you want a static target/stop but it is not required.

If you need more advanced order handling I'd suggest looking at http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/f...ead.php?t=7499

Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

To get unrealized PnL you would use this: http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...profitloss.htm

RealtimeTrades would be used for trade management in terms of trades that have been closed. For example if you wanted to stop trading after having 3 live trades. http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...timetrades.htm
