Hello,

in my strategy, open positions would not close and I don't know why. The idea is, if the last candle close below/above the 100 EMA go to check if a position is open and check if it is a long position. If it's true/false, close this open position and open a short/long position. But, whatever I do, open positions do not close. :)

So long
Marco

Hi,

Sorry for the delayed answer.
Actually the error is in your workflow: The Get historical candle and the EMA are connected after the position number check. In other words, the EMA egts calculated only if there is no open positions and the historical candle's OHLC as well. Therefore your condition to close the position if the EMA crossover is only checked when no position is opened which doesn't make any sense.
Attached a corrected version for your consideration

ps: I removed the SL levels for testing purposes in the attached example but you can put them back

Cheers
