Compiling question

[ikerbar]

Good morning,
i am trying to compile a very simple automated strategy, but all the times doesnt work.

I want to do the next thing:

when the time arrives to 11:33:56
put an entry EnterLongStop of thats time (14:19:55) price + 20 tics

TrailingStop 20 tics and move every 5 tics

Can someone give me any advise?

Thank you

I compiled this....but doesn´t work:

{
// Condition set 1
if (ToTime(Time) >= ToTime(11, 33, 56) && ToTime(Time) <= ToTime(11, 33, 57))
{
EnterLongStop(Ordenes, GetCurrentAsk() + 20 * TickSize, "Largos 20");
}
}

Hi Ikerbar,

Thank you for posting and welcome to the forums!

So, I can better assist you, can you please answer the questions below.

What is the time interval you are using for the chart?

What instrument will this strategy be run on?

What is the Calculate On Bar Close set to? True or False?

You can use the TraceOrders = true;
When enabled this will generate a confirmation in the output window on the call of each order method and provide information if order methods are ignored and why.

See the link below on using Trace Orders.

Hi Ikerbar,

Thank you for the clarification.

From your code your order will be placed, however on the next bar update it will get cancelled since the next the bar will be created three seconds after the condition is met based on your 1 min chart.

I would recommend using the Live Until Cancelled feature of the EnterLongStop().

EnterLongStop(int barsInProgressIndex, bool liveUntilCancelled, int quantity, double stopPrice, string signalName)

Please be aware that the Live Until Cancelled is a more advance way of coding and uses the Advanced Order Handling. You will also need to tell it when to cancel the order if it does not get filled.

Please let me know if I can be of further assistance.
