Hello esignal,

Thank you for your post.

If you long strategy does not have logic to exit and you are waiting until flat before taking live positions then it will not take any new positions.

What is set for the 'Start behavior' of the long strategy? Is there any exit logic in the long strategy?

I look forward to your response.

ok...
and for the question n. 2

2) it's possible to have for example..2 strategy long e 1 strategy short on the same futures?

Hello esignal,

Thank you for your response.

It is possible to have the strategies maintaining their own positions on the same future and account. However, the account position will reflect the actual position. For example, you have two strategies short for 1 quantity each and one strategy long for 1 quantity on the same instrument and account, then the account would reflect 1 short.

For information on account versus strategy position please visit the following link: http://ninjatrader.com/support/helpG..._account_p.htm

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Hello esignal,

Thank you for your patience.

The two Synchronize executions are to sync the account position to the strategy position, the close Position executions close the current position of the strategy, the Sell Short and Buy are entries for their respective sides.

If you need to determine which execution belongs to which strategy you can use the Signal Names of the order functions to set a string for the orders. Then you could assign a variable to the string as well for the instance of the strategy.

For example:

		protected override void OnStateChange()
		{
			if (State == State.SetDefaults)
			{
				Description									= @"Enter the description for your new custom Strategy here.";
				Name										= "ExampleInstanceEntrySignalNameString";
				Calculate									= Calculate.OnEachTick;
				
				Instance									= 1;
			}
		}

		protected override void OnBarUpdate()
		{
			if (State == State.Historical) return;
			
			EnterLong("entry " + Instance.ToString());
		}
		
		[Range(1, int.MaxValue), NinjaScriptProperty]
		[Display(ResourceType = typeof(Custom.Resource), Name = "Instance", GroupName = "NinjaScriptParameters", Order = 0)]
		public int Instance
		{ get; set; }

Please let me know if you have any questions.
