simple strategy MACD and RSI

[NinjaTrader_ChelseaB]

Hello trelling,

This is good the time of the bar is printing.

It looks like you selected Time > Time series instead of Time > Date series, so the date is not included.

As long as your test is only over a single day this should be an issue.

Next you need to add the values compared in the entry condition to the string builder.
Start by adding a string for the label for the first value compared in the condition set, the MarketPosition, then add a new string and select Strategy > Current market position.

This?
// Set 3
if ((MarketPosition.Flat == Position.MarketPosition)
&& (CrossAbove(RSI1.Avg, RSI1.Avg, 1)))
{
EnterLong(Convert.ToInt32(NumberOfContracts), "");
}
{
Print(Convert.ToString(Times[0][0]));
}

Hello trelling,

Below is a link to a video of debugging with the strategy builder.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1CClt0GsUFLIwQVhVyTD4JjJgEIwJKv6L/view?usp=drive_link

Please watch this video.

Follow the video to print the time of the bar in a condition set with no conditions.

Then add a string for a label 'MarketPosition', and add a string for Strategy > Current market position.

thanks, the problem is that I don't see anything so I can't react to the messages as well as not knowing how to program. I redid an even more simpler strategy: buy when the blue line (7) exceeds the yellow (3) and sell when the blue is below the yellow. tell me what's wrong with it

Hello trelling,

Debugging prints allow you to see if the condition will evaluate as true or false and why.

If the order is not being submitted, the condition did not evaluate as true.

This means you need to print the values compared in the condition to see why this is evaluating as false.

Your condition is looking for the position to be flat and for the RSI Default plot to cross itself.

So print the time of the bar, print the position, and print the RSI Default on the previous bar and the current bar. Look for where the position prints as flat, the default plot is less than itself on the previous bar and greater than itself on the current bar.
