TP/LimitOrders get cancelled by Ninja

[bagira198011]

Hello

I use a simple strategy in managed mode:
I use EnterLong/EnterShort with a qty of 2.

I d like the first TP to be reached after 10 ticks, the 2nd one is based on the countersignal of the entry.

Problem is: my TP order gets cancelled (Here an example of a short trade with a buy limit that gets cancelled with TraceOrders switched on):
Cancelled expired order: BarsInProgress=0: Order='NT-00007/Backtest' Name='SyExit' State=Working Instrument='CL 06-14' Action=BuyToCover Limit price=100.19 Stop price=0 Quantity=1 Strategy='BunnyHopp888' Type=Limit Tif=Gtc Oco='' Filled=0 Fill price=0 Token='7c9b83de51b64fb6b3a1ee758de84656' Gtd='01.12.2099 00:00:00'

The cancellation happens 2-3 minutes after my buyLimit(TP) order was sent.

Would you know a way to make the TP not get cancelled?

Thanks
Michael

Hello Michael,

Thank you for your post.

You will need to set the liveUntilCancelled bool to true in the Exit() method used for your Profit Target. The syntax for ExitLongLimit() and ExitShortLimit() with the bool included are below:

• ExitLongLimit(int barsInProgressIndex, bool liveUntilCancelled, int quantity, double limitPrice, string signalName, string fromEntrySignal)
• ExitShortLimit(int barsInProgressIndex, bool liveUntilCancelled, int quantity, double limitPrice, string signalName, string fromEntrySignal)

For information on these methods please visit the following link: http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...d_approach.htm

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