Control of entry Point

[mkingts]

I tried to set the entry point if the last bar has a lower high, then I'll entry once it went higher than last bar high.

my code was as follow:

if (High[1] < High[2]) // last bar high < previous bar
{
if (Close[0] > High[1]) // current price > last bar high
{
EnterLongLimit(High[1] + 0.25);
}
}

After I run the back test, the result is different, is there anything wrong?

Hello mkingts,

Thank you for your post.

When running the backtest please enable TraceOrders in your code, and then open the Output window under Tools > Output to see information on the trades. I suspect the trades are submitting to a value that is not valid or is unexpected based on your logic.

For information on TraceOrders please visit the following link: http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/f...ead.php?t=3627

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