For example, right now, I am just trying to implement a very basic strategy of go long above a moving average and when the open of a new candle breaks the moving average, close the position and go short.
Obviously in choppy times, this strategy will get eaten alive. How would I tell it that, I only want to go long or short after the close of the second candle above the moving average? This would cut some of the choppiness out.
Also, for some reason, when it goes short on me, I am in for 2 contracts instead of one. I am not sure why that is. The voice says "Order Filled" when going from long to short, but "Order Cancelled" when going from short to long.
Thanks for any help, like I said, I am not looking for this strategy to actually work, just some of the thoughts that I have on how I think it would help me understand the strategy developer.
