Having trailing stop disables order submission

[rbeckmann05]

Hello, I am trying to get a trailing stop on my automated strategy, however when I put a trailing stop on, the strategy does not submit any orders at all, ever. It works with a parabolic stop, however I just want a trailing stop. How can I fix this?

Hello rbeckmann05,

Thank you for your post.

So I may accurately assist you, please answer all of the following questions:

• Are you making this strategy in the Strategy Builder or is it an unlocked strategy in the NinjaScript Editor?
• Are there any error messages on the Log tab of the Control Center when the strategy is not submitting any orders at all?
• Do you receive an error on the screen? Are there errors on the Log tab of the Control Center? If so, what do these errors report?
• What is the TraceOrders output when the strategy is not submitting orders? This can be enabled either on the "Default Properties" screen of the Strategy Builder or during State.SetDefaults in an unlocked strategy

I look forward to your reply.
