  //------------------------------------------------------------------------- // Main code : positionprices_trade(1) //------------------------------------------------------------------------- // Definition of code parameters DEFPARAM CumulateOrders = true// Cumulating positions deactivated x=1 if not onmarket and time > 080800 and time < 210000 then BUY 1 PERPOINT AT low[10]+x stop SELLSHORT 1 PERPOINT AT high[10]-x stop endif set stop loss 10 set target profit 100 if longonmarket then BUY 1 PERPOINT AT 1.0004*positionprice stop endif if shortonmarket then sellshort 1 PERPOINT AT 0.9996*positionprice stop endif c1= 0.9996*positionprice c2=1.0004*positionprice if close<=c1 and longonmarket then sell at market endif if close>=c2 and shortonmarket then exitshort at market endif

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41

  //------------------------------------------------------------------------- // Main code : positionprices_trade(1) //------------------------------------------------------------------------- // Definition of code parameters DEFPARAM CumulateOrders = true// Cumulating positions deactivated x=1 if not onmarket and time > 080800 and time < 210000 then   BUY 1 PERPOINT AT low[10]+x stop       SELLSHORT 1 PERPOINT AT high[10]-x stop     endif set stop loss 10   set target profit 100     if longonmarket then BUY 1 PERPOINT AT 1.0004*positionprice stop   endif   if shortonmarket then sellshort 1 PERPOINT AT 0.9996*positionprice stop   endif   c1= 0.9996*positionprice c2=1.0004*positionprice   if close<=c1 and longonmarket then sell at market endif   if close>=c2 and shortonmarket then exitshort at market endif

  this is placing only order even price is moved from the original order by 24 pips

  I am telling the system to sell or buy in the same direction of the trend by roughly even 4 points move

  At lines 9 and 13 you should do some math to  choose whether LIMIT or STOP should be applied to any pending order, otherwise they could be entered at market.

  I guess you are using this strategy not on a FX pair, since line 6 for currencies should be (though it should ALWAYS be, no matter what instrument you are trading):

  x=1*pipsize

  1	x=1*pipsize

  As for your last two lines, I can’t understand thoroughly what they mean, so I’m asking you to better explain your issue.

  Your lines like this one for example:

  BUY 1 PERPOINT AT 1.0004*positionprice stop

  1	BUY 1 PERPOINT AT 1.0004*positionprice stop

  is buying if price moves 0.04% above the current position price. You are talking in pips in your question not %.
