Help with BarsSinceEntryExecution -1

[Kicks.Spin]

Can someone show me why BarsSinceEntryExecution is always -1? Its not recogninzing the entry. Code lines 160 & 183 are like
if(Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Long && BarsSinceEntryExecution(0, "matthewrenko1long", 0) >= 1 )
because there is another dataseries[1] exists. You would need to use a UniRenko chart. When you execute only 1 entry will fire early in chart. Then it will never close trade since BarsSinceEntryExecution = -1. I read related posts on this forum to get this far. thanks

Hello Kicks.Spin,

Thanks for your post.

This line: if(Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Long && BarsSinceEntryExecution(0, "matthewrenko1long", 0) >= 1 ) is looking for an entry named matthewrenko1long.

This line EnterLong(); does not use that signal name.

The same is true for the short order as well.

I would suggest adding the signal name to the entry order.
