multi-instrument strat only executing first of two longs

[rrasche98]

I have a 5-minute chart with FAS as the primary data series, and ES 06-13 as the secondary series. The idea is to develop a strategy that takes a long on both FAS and ES if certain conditions are met.

In addition to the two data series on the chart, the strategy also has this line in the initialize section:
Add("ES 06-13", PeriodType.Minute, 5);

When I run the strategy, I'm only getting a long order for FAS (the primary).

Here the relevant snippet within the OnBarUpdate:

if (BarsInProgress == 0
&& ToTime(Time[0]) >= TimeStart
&& ToTime(Time[0]) <= TimeEnd
etc...)
{
EnterLong(0, 200, "enterLongFAS"); //this executes OK
EnterLong(1, 1, "enterLongES"); //this does NOT execute
}

Any help is appreciated... thanks!

Hello rrasche98,

Thank you for your note.

This is likely due to the EntryHandling used for the Strategy.

Please set the following in your Initialize() method and advise if this resolves the matter:

			EntriesPerDirection = 1;
			EntryHandling = EntryHandling.UniqueEntries;

For information on EntryHandling please visit the following link: http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...ryhandling.htm

Please let me know if I may be of further assistance.
