Enter/Exit Parameters

[Timothy_Miller]

I currently have an issue with the parameters of the Enter/Exit command within
NinjaScript: Strategy.

My indicator is searching towards the most recent candle to the Right and when it finds a successful pattern, it prints at CurrentBar, which is further to the Left, (Where it started.)

Is there a way to Enter/Exit at the Candles to the Right of the CurrentBar,
rather than having it Enter/Exit at CurrentBar?

Note: I will be working on the indicator to search in the inverse manner, when no viable answer is able.

Thank you.

Hello Timothy_Miller,

Thank you for your post.

Are you using CalculateOnBarClose set to true or false for this search?

If you use true for this, the current bar will be the last completed bar on the right side, I.E. the bar to the left of the bar being built.

If you use false for this, the current bar will be the bar being built.

Thank you Cal,

I was using...
CalculateOnBarClose = false

My method will be to use false, because I am searching specific prices and want to catch them early.

In the Strategy Analyzer tool, I have tried both ways and they Enter/Exit on the same Bars, with true and false. They both still provide CurrentBar Entry rather than the most right Bar.

Any other ideas would be much appreciated. Thank you. ^_^

Timothy_miller,

Strategy Analyzer will always use CalculateOnBarClose set to true, there is no way to override this in the backtest.
