Hello Support, currently I use: if (sc.GetBarHasClosedStatus() == BHCS_BAR_HAS_NOT_CLOSED) return; in my system. But: If e.g. e stop condition is met this causes the stop order to execute at the close of the last candle which can ce way to far away from my exit condition. If I do not use this condition I see strange results in the Trade Log. For Backtest I use Auto Trade Bar Based Backtest. What can I do to exit at a price that is close to the price of my exit condition ? |

Therefore, you should only use this: if (sc.GetBarHasClosedStatus() == BHCS_BAR_HAS_NOT_CLOSED) for an entry and not an exit.

Thank you. If "Auto Trade Bar Based Backtest" is used instead of "Auto Trade Replay Test" how could this effect the precision of an execution. My understanding is that in BAr based Backtest the price changes within a bar are not verified by my code while in Replay test ist is. Is that correct ? |
