    Help with Strategy Builder strat please

    Can someone tell me why this strategy does not close the opened positions by the trailing stop?
    Here are the strat builder pages:

    I have orders allowed set to 2. So what is happening is that 2 orders open and then remain open until session close.
    I seem to have used the trail stop incorrectly as it is not closing the positions or activating at all

    thanks

    Hello lindsayf,

    Unfortunately, you cannot use SetStopLoss() and SetTrailStop() at the same time on the same order.

    From the help guide:
    "The SetTrailStop() method can NOT be used concurrently with the SetStopLoss() method for the same position, if both methods are called for the same position (fromEntrySignal) the SetStopLoss() will always take precedence. You can however, use both methods in the same strategy if they reference different signal names."


    You will need to remove the SetStopLoss() for the SetTrailStop() to work
