unexpected/unwanted trades + Set methods

[NinjaTrader_ChrisL]

Hi Amedeus, thanks for posting this.

The obvious problem from the screen shot is there are only two entries yet it looks like there are profit targets set, so there is something wrong with the entry quantities or order handling in the strategy. What data feed are you using to run the strategy? Can you send me a reduced example to scriptingsupport at ninjatrader.com, referencing "Attn ChrisL 3327115" in the body of the email?

Best regards,

hey Chris, thank you,

I can provide some of it.
The methods are called like this :

protected override void OnStateChange()
{
...
else if (State == State.DataLoaded)
{
someComboz_SetStopTarget();
}
}

private void someComboz_SetStopTarget()
{
SetStopLoss("someComboa", CalculationMode.Ticks, someInta, false);
SetStopLoss("someCombob", CalculationMode.Ticks, someInta, false);
SetStopLoss("someComboc", CalculationMode.Ticks, someInta, false);

SetProfitTarget("someComboa", CalculationMode.Ticks, someIntb);
SetProfitTarget("someCombob", CalculationMode.Ticks, someIntb);
SetProfitTarget("someComboc", CalculationMode.Ticks, someIntb);
}

None of the FromEntrySignal is called "Profit Target"...
and the finder cannot find : "Profit Target"

What better detail could I provide ?

Hello Amedeus, thanks for writing in.

It looks like a signal "Profit Target" is creating the short position. I can not tell what is causing this from the screen shot. Can you provide some details about the strategy?

Hi everyone,

I have an issue with a strategy :

at some point, from time to time, when running real time, the strategy starts to take unexpected trades as the short in the attached picture.
there is no short in this piece of script, yet at the end of the long, it enters for a short.

this is using the SetStopLoss(); and SetProfitTarget(); methods.

Has anyone a clue as why this is doing this ? or what to look for in order to know the why and correct it ?
