Enter 3 ticks above or bellow of the closing bar

[mario2306]

Hello everyone.
I have a strategy when Close[0] < Open[0], enter short and Close[0] > Open[0], enter long.
I want to enter short 3 ticks bellow the closing of that bar and enter long 3 ticks above the closing of that bar and i do not know how to do that.
Anyone can help me, please?
Thank you.

Hello mario2306,

Thanks for your post.

To place a sell order 3 ticks below the price of the bar, you will need to place a stop market (or stop limit) order.

In the Strategy Wizard actions section, this is the option to Enter short position by a stop order under Order management. Which creates EnterShortStop().

• Click the Add button in the Do the following section
• Expand Order Management -> select Enter short position by a stop order
• In the stop price click the ellipses button "..." to choose value
• Select Price data -> Close
• Add -3 to the Offset below
• Click OK -> click OK

Hello mario2306,

May I test your script on my end?

If so, please attach an export of the script to your next post.

To export your script do the following:

1. Click File -> Utilities -> Export NinjaScript
2. Enter a unique name for the file in the value for 'File name:'
3. Select the strategy from the objects list on the left -> click the right facing arrow ">" to add the strategy to the export
4. Click the 'Export' button -> click 'yes' to add any referenced indicators to the export -> click OK to clear the export location message

By default your exported file will be in the following location:

• (My) Documents/NinjaTrader 7/bin/Custom/ExportNinjaScript/<export_file_name.zip>

Hi mario2306,

I have tested your script using the ES 12-14 1 Minute data from Jan 1st to today and found it placed 568 trades.

Are you sure that the script is enabled?

How many days to load is on your chart?

(I am seeing a trade that was entered 20 minutes ago and exited 8 minutes ago.)

I tried only on the unirenko bars.
Now i see, does not work on the unirenko, but the rest of the bars are ok.
Thank you very much for your help.

Now i want to add another condition to my strategy but again i do not know how to do that.
I want to enter only if MACD from another time frame is rising or falling.
It is posible to do that?

Hi mario2306,

To add a condition to an already existing condition set, click the Add button to add a condtion.

• On the left select Misc -> Rising
• In the Series input below click the ellipses button "..."
• Select Indicators -> MACD -> click OK
  
• On the right select Mics -> True
• Click OK

I know how to add a condition, i do not know how to add MACD from another time frame.

Hi mario2306,

Multiple time frames are not possible with the Strategy Wizard.

If you want to use multiple time frames you will need to unlock your script and use Add() to add a timeframe.

Then use the bars array index of that added script.

For example:

SMA(BarsArray[1], 19)[0]

or

SMA(Lows[1], 19)[0]
