How to run independent trades simultaneous in strategy

[Vladja]

Hi Ninja,

I have been trying to create a strategy that can back test separate and simultaneous trades with their own individual set of bracket orders.

I'm using EnterLongLimit orders for entry and not even a condition, f.i: EnterLongLimit(DefaultQuantity,10000,"");

Ninja executes the trades beautifully when price has reached the limit price and executes the brackets in the backtest.
It does so a number of times over the backtesting period for this limit price
However, if I add a second ordermanagement command such as EnterLongLimit(DefaultQuantity,10100,""); (note the difference in price),
then Ninja skips the first command and only executes the orders for the second price.
Is there a way to have Ninja execute multiple trades like this simultaneously, and treat them separately with their own bracket orders and also not let the exit of one trade influence the exit of other running trades?
I have tried several things already such as using separate condition sets/tabs in the wizard per orderentry command, changing "Entries per direction" to 10, changing "Entry Handling" to Unique Entries but nothing seems to work.
Maybe it cannot be done with limit orders? Something else?
I must be missing something.

Can you help?

Regards,
Vladja

Hello Vladja,

Yes this is possible.

You would want to uniquely name your entries in your enter methods, set entry entryHandling to Unique Entries, and pass the entry signal names to the from entry signal for your profit targets and stop losses.

This will allow you to enter two different orders independent of each other, and have stops and targets assigned to the specific entries.

I have attached a strategy demonstrating this.

Please also see the following section of the helpguide,
