Hello nadire.sadiki60,

Thanks for your post.

I see that you are calling Entry methods and Exit methods in the same Set in your strategy. Entry and Exit methods should not be called in the same Set as this could cause issues to occur.

To reverse the position of a strategy, simply call the Entry order method in the opposite direction as mentioned in the Managed Approach help guide page linked below.

"Entry() methods will reverse the position automatically. For example if you are in a 1 contract long position and now call EnterShort() -> you will see 2 executions, one to close the prior long position and the other to get you into the desired 1 contract short position."

Managed Approach: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...d_approach.htm

Scaling into a position is controlled with the signal names of your strategy, and properties EntryHandling and EntriesPerDirection.

See this help guide page about Signal Names: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...m#EntryMethods

And, see this help guide page about FromSignalName used for Exit methods: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...CloseAPosition

This reference sample can help with scaling in and out of a strategy.

This sample can assist further with managing multiple exit/entry signals:
