Post From: SC Function to find trade position

Main objective is to have a strategy that has a triggered trailing stop to reverse when criteria are met. Question 1: Do I have to have sc.AllowMultipleEntriesInSameDirection set to true to make this happen? Here is the code that launches my triggered trailing stop if (sc.BaseData[SC_LAST][sc.Index - 1] < b_TradeTarget && sc.BaseData[SC_LAST][sc.Index] >= b_TradeTarget && ExistingOrder.Price1 != b_TrailStop) { b_TrailStop = b_TradeTarget - (TrailStopOff.GetInt() *sc.TickSize); NewOrder.OrderQuantity = OrderQuantity.GetInt(); NewOrder.OrderType = SCT_ORDERTYPE_TRIGGERED_TRAILING_STOP_3_OFFSETS; NewOrder.Price1 = b_TrailStop;// Stop price NewOrder.Price2 = b_TradeTarget;// Trail trigger price NewOrder.TimeInForce = SCT_TIF_DAY; int Result = sc.SellEntry(NewOrder); } } Question 2: If sc.AllowMultipleEntriesInSameDirection has to be set to true, what is the best function to determine 1. The strategy is in a trade and 2. The direction of the trade? I am using sc.GetOrderByIndex(EntryID, ExistingOrder) and (ExistingOrder.BuySell == BSE_SELL / Buy) functions to determine the direction of the trade but multiple entries still exist. |
