Multiple 'Profit in Ticks Selection' in Strategy Builder

[Polufson]

Hello,

I have built a strategy that allows me to pick certain times my strategy is allowed to place trades, and I am wondering if there is a way to allow two options involving the amount of ticks in profit as a feature.

To further explain this, I would like to be able to either choose a 75 tick profit or a 130 tick profit when I am going to run the strategy. Rather than have two different strategies to choose this, I would like it to be inside ONE strategy.

Just as I am able to select what 'Time' my strategy can place trades, I'd like to select which 'Profit in Ticks' as well.

Thank you

Hello Polufson,

Thanks for your post.

Yes, you can create a "user input" set to int type and specify the default ticks (75?) and when you apply the strategy you have the option to set that value differently (than the default) if you wish.

In the Profit target, you would click "set" in the "Value" field to then select User input> and then the name of your user input. Make sure the profit target mode is/remains "ticks".
