  i have 2 questions – Can you please assist me with this, i have a strategy to buy and sell on the same code (one unit each time)

  My question is can i have the buy and sell at the same time? if possible, how to code it? basically same as cumulative orders but only one order max ot (n) order either side.

  second question is , what determines the activation of cumulative orders (true function triggering orders during the same timeframe when conditions are met) is what i assumed, but the result during backtest shows trades with profit/loss multiple times. can you clarify?

  thanks

  1. long and short trades are not possible, as soon as you place a BUY order any open short position is first closed, before a new long trade is started.

  2. your question is not clear enough, but cumulating orders is simply executing multiple BUY or SELLSHORT if your conditions are met; they can be the original conditions or new ones to trigger additional orders.
