Multi Time Frame Strategy Cancellation

[jthom]

Hello,

I currently have a multitimeframe strategy setup on 4 range and 1 range bars. 4 range handle the entry conditions and initial entry order, while the 1 range series handles order cancellation if the close price moves 2 ticks away from entry order.
The problem im having is that once an order has been placed, a cancellation preceeds it immediately.

PHP Code:

if (Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Flat && BarsInProgress == 0) { 
  if (Bla Bla) {
     entryOrder1 = EnterLongLimit(0, true, DefaultQuantity, Close[0] - 2 * TickSize, "Long 1a");
     Buy = true;}
if (Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Flat && BarsInProgress == 1) {
   if (Buy == true && entryOrder1 != null && entryOrder1.LimitPrice != null && Close[0] == entryOrder1.LimitPrice + 2 * TickSize) { 
   CancelOrder(entryOrder1);
   Buy = false;} 


The issue seems to be the use of Close[0] in BarsArray = 1. If I use Closes[0][0], it will wait for next 4 range bar to close before cancelling order, which is too far away.
I cannot use Indicator(BarsArray[1])[0] command as the indicator is custom 3rd party.
CalculateonBar close is true.
Any ideas on how to combat this?

Thanks

James,

I suggest you actually print what the Close[0] is and what your LimitPrice is being evaluated as. Then compare it to what you see on the chart to see how they can be evaluated together.

Hey Josh,

Yeah i have done that. The problem still exists though.

jthom,

Can you please provide me with what kind of print outs you were receiving numerically? Thank you.

Also, please turn on TraceOrders = true so you can see the exact reason an order was cancelled. Thanks.
