Hello
Attach is the screen shot for the bars that i am using. These bars are set to 12 ticks with a threshold 1. Apart from profit target and trailing stop, i would like to have my entry and exit on the trend change wick. Is there any indicator /suggestion that i can get.I cannot afford to loose the wick and the bar to enter the next trend.

Hello [email protected],

What code do you currently have for the entry and what code are you currently using for the exit?

To ensure that the action is triggered intra-bar, the script will need intra-bar granularity. Below is a public link to a forum post on intra-bar granularity.

Also, below is a public link to a forum post with helpful tips on getting started with NinjaScript.

This is how i enter. Exit is profit and loss target.smaller trend change result in big losses.

Hello [email protected],

For real-time only, if you are wanting to trigger actions intra-bar set Calculate to 'On price change' or 'On each tick' in the Strategy properties window.

To trigger actions such as submitting orders inra-bar historically, intra-bar granularity is necessary. (This means adding a secondary tick series and submitting on the first tick where the condition is true. This requires unlocking the script and coding by hand).
For this to work with indicators, TickReplay must also be enabled.

Hello [email protected],

Do note, this is only if you are wanting intra-bar orders and fills historically.

The NinjaScript Editor 401 course linked in the thread linked in post #2 talks about unlocking a script to code by hand.

In the Sample Intra-bar Granularity script linked in the intra-bar granularity thread demonstrates how to add an intra-bar series and places orders to this series.

Further that post links AddDataSeries, and BarsInProgress(), in the help guide which document this.


After reviewing those forums threads, do you have specific questions I may answer for you to assist you in getting started?

Hello [email protected],

I'm not aware of any specific indicator that would allow an order to be in a position for a longer time. This would be very specific to what you are wanting coded and specifically what you want in the conditions.

would a trailing stop off the a previous bar low or low -2 ticks etc be helpful, looks the all of your bars have not wicks on your uptrend bars

YOU probably know how many number of bars back create that reversal wick bar
