Rounding in strategy builder

[Shiner452]

I’m wanting to set an order at a moving average but nothing happens and I think it’s because the price shows as 13021.11 rather than being in a normal tick increment. I know there is the function roundtoticksize but I don’t know how to add that to the strategy builder. I’m a novice with coding. Any suggestions?

Hello Shiner452,

Thanks for your post.

A limitation of the Strategy Builder is that values cannot be rounded up or down.

To round values in a script you would need to unlock the code from the Strategy Builder using the 'Unlock code' button and use the C# method Math.Round() to round values.

For information about using the C# method Math.Round(), you could do a quick Google search for something like 'Math.Round C#'.

If you are wanting to round values to the nearest tick size, you could consider using RoundToTickSize() in an unlocked script.

Here is a reference sample in the help guide that demonstrates how to use RoundToTickSize(): https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...he_nearest.htm

Please let me know if I may assist further.
