Strategy Exit

[TYS1986]

Hi,

I am having some exit issue with my live account , i understand that is the volume is too thin the price cannot be match , it would missed the execution point.
How do i code it so the strategy will exit no matter what the price is ?

Hi TYS1986, thanks for posting. The strategy needs to use ExitLong() or ExitShort() to exit a position as a market order. Your strategy needs some code in it that can check a certain criteria for exiting a market position such as a time limit or X amount of bars since the entry. See here for an example:

Thanks for the reply,

my current code is

int ProfitQuantity = 0;
if (TradeProfit)
ProfitQuantity = (int)Math.Floor(SystemPerformance.RealTimeTrades.T radesPerformance.NetProfit / Close[0]);
EnterShort((int)Math.Floor(AmountToBuy/Close[0]) + ProfitQuantity);
}
if (Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Short && Close[3] < Bot[1])
ExitShort();


but sometimes it missed the exit and creating a loss in the trade.

possible to make an exit if it missed the initial exit?

Hi TYS1986, thanks for your reply. It will take C# logic to complete that is specific to your strategy and its actions. The NinjaScript library is a C# based library, so you can use any C# code to control the flow of your strategy. E.g. Monitoring the order and the time an order stays alive can be monitored through the OnOrderUpdate method. We have an example of advanced order management using OnOrderUpdate/OnExecutionUpdate here:
