Please see the image attached. I have my strategy set up to calculate on bar close and am using Renko Bars (7/2). However, when I am live, it appears that the strategy is being calculated prior to the bar closing when a target (TP or SL) is hit. I am using the strategy builder's take profit and stop loss.
The left hand side of the image is from when I applied my strategy at the end of the day to view what the output should have been vs the right hand side which shows the output from live trading today. For whatever reason, when the first trade filled at the take profit, the strategy immediately submitted a new order. Shouldn't the strategy wait until the bar is closed as I have it set up to only take one entry per side? My thought is that it should act in similar fashion to the left hand side. Unfortunately, this turned a very green day in theory to a red day in action. Any assistance is appreciated!
