SetStopLoss. X ExitlongStopMarket. (Short)

[wagner4691]

what is the difference between ? When should I use one or the other?

Hello,

Thank you for your note.

SetStopLoss() was meant to be a shortcut to make adding a stop loss easier. This is really meant to be set once before the script starts and will be applied to all future orders.

ExitLongStopMarket() is meant to be submitted after the entry is filled (for example from OnExecutionUpdate()) and is the more direct way of placing an exit.

Below are links to examples.
