How do I keep my position open when the bar closes?

[Don22Trader1]

Hello,

I trade S&P E-mini futures on a 15 minute time period.

For practicality, the profit target in this example is 10 points

my entry method is written as shown below:

-----------------------------

if ((GetCurrentBid >= (open[0] + (4 * TickSize)))
|| (GetCurrentAsk >= (open[0] + (4 * TickSize))))
{
EnterLong()
}

-----------------------------

This logic works fine; however, when my account is still in a position when the bar closes, my position is closed automatically before it reaches my profit target.

How do I keep my position open after a new bar appears?

Hello Don22Trader1,

A position is only closed when an exit order (or Set method order) is submitted and filled, or an entry in the opposite direction exits the position and reverses, or when the Exit on session close event occurs.

Do you have any exit orders or Set methods in the script?
