Using Regression Channel to Trail Stop, but it's rounding?

[trilliantrader]

Hello! I'm developing a strategy in Strategy Builder. I plan to unlock the code once I have the logic in place to add customizations, but am working in strategy builder for now since I am new to developing with NinjaScript.

I'd like to set and trail a stop using the Regression Channel indicator. I often get an error that the order cannot be placed above market, but on instruments with lower values (like CL), I've noticed that the orders are always rounded to a whole value without anything after the decimal. The value is being pulled from the regression channel indicator, does this indicator not pull values beyond a decimal?

Thank you for the reply, Brandon. I am using Set methods.

It's happening specifically on instruments with lower values (like Crude Oil) with stops and if I used the same indicator as a target. It's always a whole number. If the channel is at 86.2, it will set the target to 86.00 which could be on the wrong side of the market.

If I should be getting specific values from the Regression Channel indicator, I will continue looking for my error.

Brandon,

On a new bar, I would like to have the stop loss price recalculated to an indicator and have unlocked the code to work with it further. It appears that the strategy builder included Convert.ToInt32 which is where the rounding is coming from.

I have a variable for Midprice that I'd like to update on a new bar an have placed the conditions in a set. What method would you suggest in place of Convert.ToInt32 to allow rounding to the hundredths place?

Midprice = Convert.ToInt32(RegressionChannel1.Middle[0]);

So better yet, let's say I have a condition to update the "Midprice" variable.

How can I set the variable to an indicator's value without having it rounded to the whole number? I need to be able to use hundredths places.

Getting closer... I've defined the Midprice variable to be a double rather than an int + Midprice = RegressionChannel1.Middle[0];
I think I can work with this.
