Closing operations after reaching a daily profit

  Dear colleagues,

  Sorry I have been away for a while. I am working on a code with daily operations. It works from 0200h to 2200h, and based on accumulation of contracts.

  I would like to sell or exit short when the profit of all my positions together is above 30 pips. I am using positionperf but obviously something is wrong.

  IF SHORTONMARKET AND COUNTOFPOSITION >= 3 AND positionperf>30*pipsize THEN
  EXITSHORT MARKET
  ENDIF

  Thanks in advance for your help and have a nice weekend.

  Juan

  Positionperf gives you the performance of the position in % and not in pips. This is where your code is wrong.
