For NinjaTrader_PaulH, Intradayflags strategy

[UltraNIX]

I tried to send PM to NinjaTrader_PaulH, but got an error, so I am posting here.

I am writing in regards to Intradayflags strategy, that I downloaded and it listed you as a creator of it. Can you also add short trades, because currently strategy only trades long. I tried to do it myself, but failed to do so.

Hello UltraNIX,

Our support staff does not answer private messages as these cannot be tracked or picked up by other member of our support.


Regarding your script, where are you failing to place short entry orders? Is the condition not evaluating as true or is the order being ignored or rejected?

Thank you for the reply. I don't mind posting this in public, as I am sure others would also benefit from this strategy.

The whole strategy is written to trade only long positions. I tried to add code for it to trade shorts as well, but failed. So if the original creator (who adapted this Strategy to NinjaTrader) would do it, I am sure everyone would appreciate it.

Hello UltraNIX,

The examples we create are only intended to be samples to show that the goal is possible to achieve as we are not able to assist with logic. These examples generally only place trades in one direction so that we are not writing code that coders will actually use in the script, and so that coders will write their own logic.

Unfortunately, in the support department at NinjaTrader it is against our policy to create, debug, or modify, code or logic for our clients. This is so that we can maintain a high level of service for all of our clients as well as our partners.

I am happy to assist you with your custom logic.

What is failing?
Is the condition not evaluating as true?
Are you using prints and TraceOrders to understand the behavior?

I am raising this question again. Since the initial post, new members like s.kinra entered this forum, so maybe you can give a try at adding Short trades to this strategy (as it's a long-only).
Link to it in NinjaTrader's Ecosystem: https://ninjatraderecosystem.com/use...intradayflags/

Or maybe NinjaTrader_PaulH , NinjaTrader_Kate or other staff member could do it.

You've been so helpful recently, I hope you could help this time as well.

Hello,
Just to update you I am mostly done with the code workflow, in some more time maybe tomorrow I can close this grasping part. So, next I am sure will be able to add the Short Trade side which I am planning for weekend as it may take some time & I prefer to complete in a go.

Great, you are my hero!

Hello,
I am done with the code, it can now take Short Trades, Good Luck!
I leave it on you to optimize & make the required changes (if any), you must do thorough testing before using it with Live Account.
Here you get it, enjoy!
