Dears,

should not this strategy open only two positions? Instead, it is opening positions every tick.

Thanks for your help,
Antony

Hi,

What makes you think that it should trade only 2 positions ?
If you are referring to the number of "Pending Open" blocks then you're completely wrong: These commands get executed every-time the foregoing conditions are verified and as you used Tick start, these conditions will be checked every tick price.
If you need only 2 positions, then you might need to specify it in the IF condition that uses the number of open positions.


Thanks

Thanks Amine,

so I did the change, bur no improvement (pls see the attachment).

Or am I missing something more fundamental?

Hi,

Please check the attached version. Your strategy trades on candle based, please consider the default trading period in your condition as it is useless to plug it to Ontick start point.

Cheers

Hi Amine,

appreciate your attention.

Please advice how to calculate sum of all opened positions on different markets?

Lets use the above discussed case as an example:
- I need a box recognising ALL OPENED POSITIONS (on both traded markets)
- if sum off all opened positions is only one (because the other got hit by SL), than do xxx

Antony

Hi,

Here is a draft showing how you should use the variable "Position Amount" that retrieves dynamically the total number of all open positions on any currency pair traded.
This is indeed a simple example for learning purpose and you may need to adjust it upon your needs.
Let me know your comments ..

Cheers

Hi Amine,

than you for your feedback. I have the same results.

But what to do, if (on given example) you wish to have:

ONE position on AUDJPY
TWO positions on GBPAUD

How to filter that?

Or in another words, how to filtrate 'different position amount' on 'different markets'?

Thanks,
Antony

Hi,

I see..
In this case a counter should be implemented and will be incremented each time a position is submitted and filled and therefore you'll get the count result which corresponds to the number of open positions per currency pair. Afterwards, you can set up the limit for each counter.
Check the attached example..

Cheers

Hi;

We found that the standard need of getting position's information per traded instrument quite useful and requires a dedicated block. Thus, we're analyzing the feasibility of implementing a new block that will perform this job to avoid using several conditions to do a simple task.
We'll keep you informed about the outcome.

Cheers!

Looking forward!

Good luck with that one.
