Modify existing Long Short strategy

[jtrade]

I wonder if someone could please modify this strategy from the Strategy section here ?

The change I am requesting is :

If long entry button activated, enter long if current bar closes up (preferably Limit order at bar close price).
If short entry button activated, enter short if current bar closes down (preferably Limit order at bar close price).

Trade is then managed by ATM (if selected).

I am using range bars, so the bar will close either at its high or low. It would be very helpful, although not essential, if the strategy would default to "Inactive" if the signal did not fire on the first bar after activation.

Hello jtrade,

Thank you for your post.

We can provide support on building this strategy but we do not provide programming services.

In the code for the strategy you will notice two ToolStripButtons, btnManual and btnEntry. btnManual for Long entries and btnEntry for short entries.
If you follow these you will notice the following conditions:

if (btnManual.Text != "LONG"
	&&
	Close[1]>=MAX(High,2)[2]+0*TickSize
				&&High[1]<CurrentDayOHL().CurrentHigh[1]
	&&High[0]>High[1]
//0>SMA(5)[1]-SMA(34)[1]
//	&&(
//
//	(0<SMA(5)[0]-SMA(34)[0])
//	)
	)
{

EnterLong();
}
if (btnEntry.Text != "SHORT"
	&&	Low[1]>CurrentDayOHL().CurrentLow[1]
	&&Low[0]<Low[1]
	&&
Close[1]<MIN(Low,2)[2]-0*TickSize
//	0<SMA(5)[1]-SMA(34)[1]
//	&&(
//
//	(0>SMA(5)[0]-SMA(34)[0])
//	)
	)

{
EnterShort();
}

You can replace EnterLong() and EnterShort() with the AtmStrategyCreate() method. However, there is more to the ATM Strategy Methods and I would recommend reviewing the information at the following link: http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...gy_methods.htm

As well, I would recommend reviewing the SampleAtmStrategyReversal strategy I created at the following link for an example on how to properly reverse the position with ATM Strategy Methods: http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/f...d=5&linkid=615

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

Thank-you, Patrick..... but like I always say, trading is hard enough without trying to become a programmer...
