Best way to create logic on current signal for open position(s)?

[Dragon989]

Goal is to dynamically update my stop loss depending on time of day or other indicators. I'm running multiple entry signals and some signals could be used multiple times.

This would be quite simple if something like 'Position' maintained the entry signal(s). I can accomplish this with OnOrderUpdate but hoping for a more of a minimalist way to accomplish this.

Hello Dragon989,

Thank you for your note.

This would be possible,

You could see the following example which demonstrates how you can check in OnOrderUpdate if an order was filled by the name of "MyEntry". What you could do is set a bool to true if this order is filled. Then within OnBarUpdate you could check if this bool was true and if so adjust your stop/profit target. I'm not sure this approach is more minimalist but it would be one solution.
