marking time of losses

[dafonseca]

I use this to mark the time of any stop loss.
protected override void OnExecution(IExecution execution)
{
if (execution.Name == "Stop loss")
{
lastSLTime = ToTime(Time[0]);
}
}
How can I mark exitLong and exitshort in case they lose money, only?

Hello dafonseca,

You would do something similar to that but you would just have to check for the Exit Names that you give to your Exit Orders and then you may check your Position.AvgPrice to the current Market Price to see if it is a loss.

An ExitLong() order will be named as a "Sell" by default. You may want to give your orders names to help identify your Orders so that you may check for them.

Happy to be of further assistance.

I am getting the point...
You mean the name we give when the order is generated, just like that below, dont you?
EnterLong(0,positionTaken,"InRangeL7");

Hello dafonseca,

Yes, that is correct and the same for your Exit orders.
