I was wondering, maybe someone else has had the same issue, when it comes to using Strategy Builder for Auto Trading.
This pertains to Entering on Intro-Bar. Not on Bar Close.
That within different strategies being created, that use completely different indicators or price action for an entry signal.
Is there any "generic" way to control how many entries per single bar the strategy takes for IntroBar trades?
I of course, only want, 1 entry on any given bar, that meets all the requirements for the trade to be taken per strategy rules.
I have strategies I've created that I like. But sometimes the strategy will take a second trade on the same bar before it closes.
I've tries using a few different things to control this, but none of them work 100%. Like monitor unrealized P&L on the Bar(0), that don't work completely because if the first trade closes the unrealized P&L goes back to Zero (0) , then the strategy would allow another second trade to be placed on that same bar - But only sometimes, it looks like it depends on what the indicators being used, are doing on that Bar.
Or
I've tried to limit the values for an entry with < & > commands on an indicator value, in the strategy and they too, only work sometimes.
sometimes I get double entry per bar, or sometimes if the market is moving fast, the indicator would jump across the whole range i set, then for that trade, the strategy don't take the trade at all. because all of my rules don't get met.
I don't really see any command in Strategy builder for this issue. So I assume the only way to control this, is more complexed ways of coding the indicator being used or the price action type, being used in the Strategy Builder.
Best Regards
