Hi Guys,
This should be simple - for some reason I can not find how to check if an open order is long or short?
I checked the wiki and it says that I should use data type Position , then I should be able to use something like an IF statement? I still cant find it!
Can someone clear this up as im really finding it difficult to answer this!
Thanks
DoCZero

Check this screen. In the example strategy, the strategy checks all positions if it was Long and profit/loss in USD bigger and equals than 50$, than those positions will be closed. This check happens on every candle.

Hi,
I hope its not too silly to ask, but what if the position is short? In the diagram, under User Variable/currentPosition, there is no "Position is Short" Option.
Thanks
