Entry and Exit simultaneously

[Teebone21]

I am running a signal to signal strategy and need knowledge on how to code the strategy that enters and exits at the same time on the candle after trigger candle. I can work in unlocked code if necessary.

Currently the exits are perfect but getting the entries around the same price doesn't work using default coding from strategy builder

Hello Teebone21,

Thank you for your post.

Are you trying to reverse a position?
Or, are you trying to maintain long and short positions at the same time?

If you want to reverse a position, you can call EnterLong when Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Short, or EnterShort when Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Long. In the managed approach NinjaTrader will automatically send a 'Close position' order to close the existing position before sending the new entry in the opposite direction.

Here is a Help Guide link about using EnterLong() - https://ninjatrader.com/support/help.../enterlong.htm
Also, here is a Help Guide link about using EnterShort() - https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...entershort.htm

If you are trying to have both long and short positions at the same time, you would need to use 2 accounts as NinjaTrader does not support having long and short positions simultaneously on the same account.

I look forward to further assisting.
