Strategies Builder

[lycee]

hello
I had two problems with Strategies Builder
first problem
It is to enter the trade before the current candle closes
Example: Once the volume reaches 1000, a trade is executed before the candle closes
Is this possible?

The second problem
I want to set a limit for the daily profit, meaning when I reach this profit, the strategy stops until the next day
Is this possible?
Thank you for your help

Hello lycee,

You can enter a trade before the candle closes in realtime, in historical tests that would require using a manually coded strategy so that you can execute logic on a secondary smaller series.
To do that you would need to run the strategy OnEachTick in realtime.

It is also possible to set a profit limit however that won't work for multi day trading when using the builder. The strategy builder includes the PnL for historical and realtime trades so once you go over the session the trades from yesterday are still included in todays value. You can manually code a strategy which can reset daily, there is a sample here:
