Exit on close??

[eleven]

Hello,

Despite having the following code in my strategy, it is exiting on close? What can explain this? I am running a backtest on NT7. Thanks,

        protected override void Initialize()
        {
            CalculateOnBarClose = true;
            ExitOnClose = false;
            EntriesPerDirection = 10;
            EntryHandling = EntryHandling.UniqueEntries;
       }

Hello Eleven,

Thank you for your note.

Exit on close applies to open positions at the end of the day, what you are seeing in this case is your position closed due to being the last bar of data. The backtest will close any open position at the end of the period for its calculations.

Please let us know if you need further assistance.

Thanks Alan for your clarification. That makes sense.

Exit on close??

Interesting. I am running NT 7 in real-time with no orders in any state. I set ExitOnClose = false in my strategy and still ExitOnClose actions are performed. Why?

Thanks.

Exit on close??

Thanks for your response, Alan.

My strategy is 80,000+ lines of code and commercial IP, so it's not really possible to send it.

However, the matter is simple. My UI has a CheckBox that sets ExitOnClose to true or false. Even when set to false, ExitOnClose processing occurs.

Grateful for your further assistance.

Thanks.
