Market Position by Named Entry

[sdauteuil]

Using the strategy builder...

I have a strategy with 2 separate named entries.

Is there a way to determine the market position for the named entries individually.

Example under the conditions and actions box
Entryname1 Position.MarketPosition = MarketPosition.Long
Entryname2 Position.MarketPosition = MarketPosition.Flat

I need to set Variable values based on the market position of each entry.

Thank you

Hello sdauteuil,

Thank you for your post.

The Position object is for the strategy's whole position (separate from the account position) and it cannot be broken down to individual entries. To tell which order the entries were submitted, you may use booleans that get changed when the various orders get submitted.

Additionally, the strategy may use BarsSinceEntryExecution to see if the entry has executed. Attached are example screenshots showing how BarsSinceEntryExecution can be tested.


Please let me know if I may be of further assistance.
