How the best way to run strategies which carry positions?

[dafonseca]

My strategies carry positions from day to day (barely stay flat). I ve tried to use "wait until flat before trading" etc, But I ve been having some problems.
Main problem is, Interactive Brokers turns off almost every day (for maintenance) and the strategies have to be reset everyday. (I could leave NT running for several days and decrease my trouble, but...)
As I saw, SYNC TRUE with "wait until flat" does not work since the system get your position flat every day before runs it.
What would be the best way to do that?

SYNC TRUE and if (historical) return;???

Hello dafonseca,

Thanks for your note.

The best way to have a strategy resume its position and orders is to start the strategy initially and then continue running with these settings:

Add intra-bar granularity to ensure that historical trades match real time trades as closely as possible.

Set the On starting a real time strategy: option to 'Immediately submit live working historical orders' in Tools -> Options... -> Strategies -> NinjaScript.

Set the Account Sync in the strategy parameters to True
