    Insert Take profit with swing

    Hi
    I'm trying to use my strategy (I use strategy buider) to have this result: "condition long Take profit: when current price in equal or greater to Entry price-SWING Low)/2."
    I've searched a lot on precedent post but no solution.
    Can you hep me?
    Thank you

    Hi Fiocco, thanks for your note.

    Arithmetic between two data sources can not be done with the builder. This kind of strategy would need to be written in the NinjaScript editor. It would be written like so:

    Code:
    if (Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Flat)
                {
                    EnterLong(Convert.ToInt32(DefaultQuantity), "");
                }
    
                 Print((Position.AveragePrice - Swing1.SwingLow[0] / 2));
    
                if (Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Long && Close[0] >= (Position.AveragePrice - Swing1.SwingLow[0] / 2) )
                {
                    ExitLong();
                }
    But (Position.AveragePrice - Swing1.SwingLow[0] / 2) is always true because your subtracting your average entry price from the most current Swing Low, so the resulting value is always a very low number.

    Kind regards.
