No Consecutive orders in the same direction

Hi Everyone I am having a problem with a problem. I just want some fresh eyes to perhaps give me a different perspective. Its simple: If my previous trade was long. Then the next trade cannot be long. How would I code this simple bit of logic? Thanks! George

Hi George

I take it you don’t want to put your code on here? It be so much easier for a skilled coder to look at what your code is doing and propose a solution to your problem in seconds?

Take a look here … sounds a similar issue?

Thank you, yes this does help. I was on the right track but never got it exactly. My solution is as follows. Purely in terms of the condition as mentioned. I use the variable “POS”. This seems to have done the trick.

IF c1 and pos<1 THEN
BUY positionsize CONTRACT AT MARKET
ENDIF

if longonmarket then
pos=2
endif

And for short trades the following:

IF c3 and pos>-1 THEN
SELLSHORT positionsize CONTRACT AT MARKET
ENDIF

if shortonmarket then
pos=-2
endif
