Different Exit Times + Bool

[Rainbowtrader]

Hello Chelsea,

thank you, I had changed its, and the compiling works

But the fix exit times has no effect: if bool is on or off makes no difference.

I changed to "quantity" in my code:

a) private int quantity = 1;
b) ExitLong(Convert.ToInt32(quantity), @"ExitLong", @"EntryLong");
c) ExitShort(Convert.ToInt32(quantity), @"ExitShort", @"EntryShort");

Was this the next step and its right so?
What is the next one?


Best regards,
Rainbowtrader

With implementing the OnExecutionUpdate code block I got this problems:

Hello Rainbowtrader,

Are there compile errors?

If so, what are the compile errors?


With this code you have a screenshot of checking position, if you want to run logic when the position changes, this should be in OnPositionUpdate().

https://ninjatrader.com/support/helpGuides/nt8/onpositionupdate.htm

In OnExecutionUpdate() when the execution occurs (meaning a fill has occurred), you can check the name and time of the execution.
Print(execution.Name + " " + execution.Time);
Print(execution.ToString());


"But the fix exit times has no effect: if bool is on or off makes no difference."

If the bool is false, these orders are still being submitted?

You are using prints to show that this action block from the if condition is being executed as the condition is evaluating as true?

Below is a link to a forum post on using Print() to understand behavior.

Hi Chelsea,

I am searching since a while for a SIMPLE example script OR the correct code for MY script for 2 or 3 or 4 time stops. So that if an order hit its, the order will quit. No more.

This theme is running now in so different dead ends or in a kind of occupational therapy, for that I really have no time. I dont sell code or scripts - I am using its for myself. I am searching for a simple solution.

Can you giving me an example script with 2 different time stops? I cant believe, that this never asked a trader before. So an example should be exits, or?

Thank you for your help, but if you dont run my example script, this will takes weeks over weeks or months over months. Do you understand me?

Best regards,
Rainbowtrader

Hello Rainbowtrader,

There are not any examples I am aware of that are only allowing exit orders to be submitted between a time range. The examples I am aware of use logic in OnBarUpdate() to prevent the entry order outside of the time range.

Below are links to examples of using time conditions.

That said, adding prints and getting output will identify why or why not the condition in your updated code has evaluated as true as false.
