Hi there

Instead of a Open at Marked Entry I would like to use a Pending Open Buy Limit Entry for my Strategy.

This is what I did:

And this is how it should be:

The Buy Limit Order seems to work fine.
But the SL and TP don't. I get the msg: You can not place variables with this type in this place.
I also tried to change the variables form DBL to INT but the trades are not pushed.

Please have a look at it.

Cheers. :)

Oli

Hi there

The trades are opened at the Limit Entry Level but the SL and TP are not working.
It just openes a trade without SL and TP.

What can I do?

Cheers

Oli

Hey Oli,

Your orders are submitted but too far from the market price to be seen on the chart. Something is wrong with your calculations:

Hi again,

Yes ok I understand something is wrong, but what?

I set: Candle Low - 1 Pip = SL

How can the SL be to far.. it should be just 1 Pip below the Trigger Candle Low, or not?

Cheers

Oli

Hi,
One pip is 0.0001 in double format.
If you plan to use this with currency pairs having different pip size format (JPY currencies for instance) then I recommend the use of attached method.

Thanks Amine

Limit Entry and SL works fine.
But there seems to be a problem with the TP settings.

I thought: LE - SL = Distance between LE and SL multiplied by 2 = Distance to TP.

Where's the mistake?

Cheers
Oli

Hey Amine,

I could solve the "problem" now. Everything works just fine.
So please disregard the previous post.

I'm getting close to what I have in mind. The pieces of the puzzle are starting to fit together.

Have a nice day :)

Cheers Oli
