Problem with Entering Two Limit Orders

[ganbare112]

Hi,

I have a strategy that involves entering two limit orders:

EnterLongLimit(DefaultQuantity, firstEntryPrice, "1st");
EnterLongLimit(DefaultQuantity, firstEntryPrice, "2nd");

In Initalize() I include the following:
EntriesPerDirection = 1;
EntryHandling = EntryHandling.UniqueEntries;//AllEntries;//.UniqueEntries;
SetProfitTarget("1st",CalculationMode.Ticks, 4);
SetProfitTarget("2nd",CalculationMode.Ticks, 8);

The problem I'm having is that the strategy only executes one contract. When I put in one limit order with 2 contracts in the code it works. But two separate limit orders with two different signal names does not work.

Any suggestions on what might be causing the problem?

Hello ganbare112,

Thanks for your post.

When you run your strategy do you see any error messages listed in the "Log" tab of the control center?

No, I don't see any error messages.

Thanks for your reply.

Your code, tested here (substituted Close[0] + 4*TickSize for firstEntryPrice) shows both orders are placed/filled, see attached.
