How do I implement this idea

[falcon00]

I'm not looking for code samples I'm looking for a thought process in terms of the best settings or method to make this idea work.

I have a strategy that works on 1 minute bars. I want the strategy to calculate entry signals based on the OPEN of the bar.

Once we have a trade on it is necessary to continuously monitor the profitability of the trade. When an entry signal is generated I know exactly the two prices I want to leave the trade at. In other words I need the current price to be compared to the two exit prices every second (tick?) instead of every minute.

What is the best way to go about doing this?

Welcome to our forums - just work with CalculateOnBarClose set to false then, this will allow the strategy script to monitor each incoming tick in realtime - to work then on the open of the bar you could check if (FirstTickOfBar)....
