  x=close[1]

  1	x=close[1]

  I want to buy when price cross over x+30, x+60, x+90 and so on only one contact at each price

  I tried this code, but this is buying more than one contract a each price(when price retracement happens)

  if not onmarket then buy  at close[1}+1 limit endif if onmarket then buy at tradeprice+30 stop endif

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7

  if not onmarket then buy  at close[1}+1 limit endif   if onmarket then buy at tradeprice+30 stop endif

  what is the correct code to buy only contact at tradeprice+30 when price moves in my favour

  It continuously buy new order because if your are already above the price you ask, the order is triggering automatically, so you have to check first if you are below the next +30 points step and place your pending order:

  if onmarket and close<tradeprice+30 then buy at tradeprice+30 stop endif

  1 2 3

  if onmarket and close<tradeprice+30 then buy at tradeprice+30 stop endif

  DEFPARAM CumulateOrders = true // Cumulating positions deactivated   // Conditions to enter long positions c1 =  DHigh(0)-30   c2 =  DHigh(0)-60 c3 =  DHigh(0)-90 c4 =  DHigh(0)-120 c5 =  DHigh(0)-150 c6 =  DHigh(0)-180 c7 =  DHigh(0)-210 c8 =  DHigh(0)-240 c22 = (close crosses under c1) or (close crosses under c2) or (close crosses under c3) or (close crosses under c4) c222 = (close crosses under c5) or (close crosses under c6) or (close crosses under c7) or (close crosses under c8) if not onmarket and  c22 or c222 then sellshort  at market endif     if onmarket and PositionPerf>= 0.001 and close<tradeprice-30  then sellshort  at tradeprice(0)-30 stop   endif

  I am running the above code now, I will update the results, I expect it to place only 1 order at 30 points rise on the market

  @Fran55

  With percentage of price, you can try with this code snippet:

  +1%

  if onmarket and close<tradeprice*1.01 then buy at tradeprice*1.01 stop endif

  1 2 3

  if onmarket and close<tradeprice*1.01 then buy at tradeprice*1.01 stop endif

  I want to try only on

  initial order at price x=0

  then on x+30, x+60 etc

   

  the problem I am facing is system by first at x =0

  next orders is placed when price is crossing over x=30, then price come below x+30 and crosses over x+30 another other is placed

  if want to place 4 orders

  one order is placed at x=0

  then the remaining at x+30 when price is crossed over x+30 the bear in mind that I am trading in 2 seconds time frame

  It should never trade the same level because it always uses the last trade open price to place the next order at +30 points. It works, I just made the test.

  defparam cumulateorders=true if not onmarket and close>close[1] then buy at market endif if onmarket and close<tradeprice+30 then buy at tradeprice+30 stop endif

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

  defparam cumulateorders=true   if not onmarket and close>close[1] then buy at market endif   if onmarket and close<tradeprice+30 then buy at tradeprice+30 stop endif

  code seems to be working partially, I have added the target profit 41.6 then it skipped some orders

  You should check it visually on the price chart to understand why an order was not set at some steps.

  I think that your condition is not correctly formatted, try with:

  GRAPH onmarket and (close<tradeprice+25 OR close[1]<tradeprice+25)

  1	GRAPH onmarket and  (close<tradeprice+25 OR close[1]<tradeprice+25)
