Unable to change the set profit target for short orders

[mintos]

Hello, I'm not hiding the code. I changed the code and ran as is with the modified names so that it would show in the log. That's why I'm saying that the Set Profit is not doing anything.

The current code is.

if (AverageDownSet && !AverageDownExecuted)
{
    Print("Current Ask" + GetCurrentAsk());
    Print("Current Bid" + GetCurrentBid());
    Print("Supplied Price" + AverageDownTP);
    
    if (Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Short)
    {
        SetProfitTarget("Short", CalculationMode.Price, AverageDownTP);
    }
    if (Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Long)
    {
        SetProfitTarget("Long", CalculationMode.Price, AverageDownTP);
    }
    
    AverageDownExecuted = true;
}​

ShortEntryPrice = Closes[1][0] - TickSize;
SetStopLoss(CalculationMode.Ticks, (StopLossValueShort));
SetProfitTarget("Short", CalculationMode.Ticks, 99999);
// Enter Short
if (GetCurrentBid() > ShortEntryPrice)
{
    EnterShortStopMarket(0, false, Qty, ShortEntryPrice, "Short");
}​

if (Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Short)
{
    if (Closes[0][0] > ShortEntryPrice && AllowAverageDownShort && !AverageDownSet)
    {
 
        AverageDownEntry = ###
        AverageDownSL = ###
        AverageDownTP = ###

        SetStopLoss("Average Down Short", CalculationMode.Ticks, AverageDownSL, false);
        SetProfitTarget("Average Down Short", CalculationMode.Price, AverageDownTP);
        EnterShortLimit(0, false, ReentryQty, AverageDownEntry, "Average Down Short");
    }
}​

protected override void OnExecutionUpdate(Execution execution, string executionId, double price, int quantity, MarketPosition marketPosition, string orderId, DateTime time)
{
    /* We advise monitoring OnExecution() to trigger submission of stop/target orders instead of OnOrderUpdate() since OnExecution() is called after OnOrderUpdate()
    which ensures your strategy has received the execution which is used for internal signal tracking.
    
    This first if-statement is in place to deal only with the long entry. */

    if (execution.Order.Name == "Average Down Long" || execution.Order.Name == "Average Down Short")
    {
        AverageDownSet = true;
    }
}​

Also it's saying that the

• Error: PHP Max Post Size has been exceeded.

Which was why I was only grabbing the relevant timestamps on the log files. (Perhaps you should ask if they can allow for larger uploads?)

Here is the truncated log file that I can't upload. It starts from 10/29/2024 Since I apparently can't upload the whole thing.

Hello mintos,

Use a web file sharing service and provide a link if the file is too large.

Where is the SetStopLoss with the FromSignalName 'Short' in this code?

11/12/2024 4:00:00 AM Strategy 'testcode/-1': Entered internal SetStopTarget() method: Type=Target FromEntrySignal='Short' Mode=Ticks Value=99999 IsSimulatedStop=False IsMarketIfTouched=False

To confirm you are using 99999 as the number of ticks for the target?

Here is the SetStopLoss from signal name "Short" in the code.

ShortEntryPrice = Closes[1][0] - TickSize;
SetStopLoss(CalculationMode.Ticks, (StopLossValueShort));  // <==============
SetProfitTarget("Short", CalculationMode.Ticks, 99999);
// Enter Short
if (GetCurrentBid() > ShortEntryPrice)
{
EnterShortStopMarket(0, false, Qty, ShortEntryPrice, "Short");
}​​

Hello mintos,

This is not using 'Short' as the FromEntrySignal.

Use:

SetStopLoss("Short", CalculationMode.Ticks, (StopLossValueShort));


The profit target may not have been submitted due to the distance.

Try using 20 ticks. Does the order get submitted?
