how to sell limit on the moving average

[Thomas79]

Hi, i'm constructing a script based on the moving average, basicly, when 2 moving average cross to the upside buy... but i don't want to buy at the market (EnterLong) but after a pull back on the fast moving average... i tried to write a EnterLongLimit like that but it doesn't work :

EnterLongLimit (1, SMA(21), "Entry Long")

i want than my limit order moves with the fast moving average...

how can i do ?
thx for answers

Hi Thomas, could you tell me what error message you're getting?

Just a quick guess, but could you also try EnterLongLimit(1, SMA(21)[0], "Entry Long")?

The error code is CS1502 and CS1503

i already tried to write EnterLongLimit(1, SMA(21)[0], "Entry Long") but the problem is that the order don't move up with the moving average, i mean that the order is fill only if the market hit the moving average during the [0] period... but if the market hit the moving average 2, 3, 4 periods after, the moving average rose but not the order. that's my problem

Thomas, I think I might have an idea as to why it is not trailing, but to test my theory, I'd need to see the relevant sections of code. Could you please post the code? You could just email it to [email protected] attn Austin if you'd like.
