ExitLongs & ExitShorts

[Mykro]

Hello,

I have a simple crossovser setup that I could use some help on...

I'm trying to obtain the highest close in the trade to maximize profit. As I have it, to exit the trade the line on close crosses below the fast MA and takes the profit.
How can I attain the highest point and take profit vs the close crossing below the MA line..?? I have the Pivots indicator on the chart and I was thinking of coming up with the correct logic using Exitlongs and Exitshorts and using the pivots indicator to exit the trade. I'm not quite sure how to get the logic correct using the Strategy Builder...

Thanks
Michael

Hello Mykro,

What are the rules you would like to use for detecting that high as the data is processed?

Are you wanting a specific distance in ticks from the entry?

Do you want to compare to the highest high of the day?

Or possibly the highest high in a specific amount of bars?

Hi Chelsea,

I guess it would be the highest high in a specific amount of bars..?

If you look at the blue arrow I put on the image, from the arrow down to where the red line crossed over the blue line. that would be the entry point...

Thanks Michael

Hello Michael,

To confirm, you would like to trigger an exit after every new high after the entry bar?

The entry bar number can be saved by assigning CurrentBar to a variable.

On new bars, wsing CurrentBar minus this variable would give a value which can be used for the period of the HighestBar() method.
