Help - Simple BB reversion strategy

[QuantKey_Bruce]

After you changed your code where it is setting BarsRequiredToTrade = 50 or whatever, did you remove the strategy from the chart and add it back again? Because that setting is in State.SetDefaults it could be still remembering the previous value because it's saved on the chart itself from when you added the strategy the first time (which might have been before you changed the default and recompiled). Or, check your chart to see if the property Bars required to trade is changed on that instance of the strategy.

Thanks!

I am getting an error in the logs for "BarsRequiredToTrade" has not been met (screenshot attached).

I have tried change the BRTT default to a value of 1, 5 and 50 and get the same error each time.

Hello, thanks for writing in.
In the Bollinger Bands indicator, the upper band is typically set to two standard deviations above the moving average, while the lower band is set to two standard deviations below the moving average. The high price of any instrument will not cross below the low of the lower Bollinger Band if the price is within the band's range. You can adjust the band being used in the left side of your condition, in the Bollinger Band settings "Plot Value". You can also debug your strategy using a Print and drawing to visually help explain the output of the strategy (i.e. No output or drawing object = condition is not true)

In your stop loss, the "From Entry Signal" should have a capital L at the beginning. This string field is case-sensitive, so the Entry Signal And From Entry Signal must be exactly the same.

hi there, yes this was done using strategy builder, I just displayed using script for ease of sharing.

Have you tried doing this with Strategy Builder? That seems well within its capabilities. You could then unlock the code and see how it does it in NinjaScript.

Hi All,

I am still getting familiar with NT8 strategy building and have a few intraday strategies which I am testing fine, but I am having trouble getting a daily BB based strategy to execute.

Hoping someone with more experience can point me in the right direction.
