    Retrieving EnterLong signalName

    When using the Managed Approach:

    In State.Configure:

    SetProfitTarget(@"Long Entry 1",CalculationMode.Ticks,5)
    SetStopLoss( @"Long Entry 1", CalculationMode.Ticks, 5, false)
    SetProfitTarget(@"Long Entry 2",CalculationMode.Ticks, 10)
    SetStopLoss( @"Long Entry 2", CalculationMode.Ticks, 10, false)

    In OnBarUpdate

    EnterLong(2, "Long Entry 1")
    EnterLong(1, "Long Entry 2")

    In OBU how can I select which Long Entry I want to manage (adjust Stops and Targets)? Something like:

    if(signalName == "Long Entry 1")
    {
    do something
    }
    else if (signalName == "Long Entry 2")
    {
    do something else
    }

    I have tried a few things with no joy like:
    if(EnterLong.Name.Contains("Long Entry 1")) but EnterLong is a method so this does not work.

    Thanks.

    Hello TAJTrades,

    The Order objects .Name property will be the signal name of the order.

    private Order entry1;

    In OnOrderUpdate()
    if (order.Name == "entry1")
    entry1 = order;

    In OnBarUpdate()
    if (entry1 != null && entry1.Name == "Long Entry 1")
    {
    // execute code
    }

    Below is a link to an example script that uses signal names.
