Code form Strategy Builder is wrong?

[sergey_z]

Hello

Why code made by Strategy Builder is does`n works?

    public class smacross1 : Strategy
    {
        private SMA SMA1;

        private SMA SMA2;

        protected override void OnStateChange()
        {
            if (State == State.SetDefaults)
            {
                Description                                    = @"Enter the description for your new custom Strategy here.";
                Name                                        = "smacross1";
                Calculate                                    = Calculate.OnPriceChange;
                EntriesPerDirection                            = 1;
                EntryHandling                                = EntryHandling.AllEntries;
                IsExitOnSessionCloseStrategy                = false;
                ExitOnSessionCloseSeconds                    = 30;
                IsFillLimitOnTouch                            = false;
                MaximumBarsLookBack                            = MaximumBarsLookBack.TwoHundredFiftySix;
                OrderFillResolution                            = OrderFillResolution.Standard;
                Slippage                                    = 0;
                StartBehavior                                = StartBehavior.WaitUntilFlat;
                TimeInForce                                    = TimeInForce.Gtc;
                TraceOrders                                    = false;
                RealtimeErrorHandling                        = RealtimeErrorHandling.StopCancelClose;
                StopTargetHandling                            = StopTargetHandling.PerEntryExecution;
                BarsRequiredToTrade                            = 20;
                // Disable this property for performance gains in Strategy Analyzer optimizations
                // See the Help Guide for additional information
                IsInstantiatedOnEachOptimizationIteration    = true;
            }
            else if (State == State.Configure)
            {
                AddDataSeries(Data.BarsPeriodType.Day, 1);
            }
            else if (State == State.DataLoaded)
            {                
                SMA1                = SMA(Closes[1], 2);
                SMA2                = SMA(Opens[1], 2);
            }
        }

        protected override void OnBarUpdate()
        {
            if (BarsInProgress != 0) 
                return;

            if (CurrentBars[0] < 1)
            return;

             // Set 1
            if (CrossAbove(SMA1, SMA2, 0))
            {
                Draw.Diamond(this, @"smacross1 Diamond_1", false, 0, GetCurrentAsk(0), Brushes.Red);
            }

             // Set 2
            if (CrossBelow(SMA1, SMA2, 0))
            {
                Draw.Diamond(this, @"smacross1 Diamond_1", false, 0, GetCurrentAsk(0), Brushes.Yellow);
            }

        }
    }

I don`t see any Diamonds on Chart when SMAs are cross. Why???

Hello sergey_z,
Thanks for your post.

I tested on my end and I never saw a situation where these conditions became true. I actually got an error on the logs tab until I modified the code myself.

This is also raw code and could have potentially been modified. Can you please attach the .cs file here so we can see what you have done in the Builder.

There is a file from Builder

sergey_z,

I do see the diamonds drawn on my chart when I run this strategy from my chart. You can check this on your end by running the strategy on your chart>>right-click inside chart>>Drawing Tools>>Drawing Objects...

You can check the anchor of each diamond to see where on the chart it is drawn.

Is it your intent to draw this diamond on each occurrence or just the most recent?
