Error Message for trailing stop loss

[litamm89]

price !

I keep getting an error code when I use a trailing stop loss.

I have a trailing stop loss set at 120 ticks.

It works just fine when I am losing money and my trade is negative however when I start making money it typically cuts me out around 5 points with the error message.

Strategy " " submitted an order that generated the following error "Unable to change order". Strategy has set cancel requests, attempted to close the position and terminated itself.

Second error is:

Cannot change order ' code' because current order values already match. Affected order Sell 1 Stop Market @ Price

What is going on or what am I doing wrong?

Hello litamm89,

Thanks for your post.

Are you testing with live data, historical data, or Playback with Market replay data?

If historical data, are you testing in the Strategy analyzer?

What is the Calculate setting of the strategy (Calculate.OnBarClose, Calculate.OnEachTick, or Calculate.OnPriceChange)

Are you creating the strategy in the Strategy Builder or are you working directly in Ninjascript?

I am testing with live money and live data.

The sims dont seem to have the same problem but when I activate the exact same strategy on my real account it triggers the error messages.

Calculate setting is as follows

SetTrailStop("",CalculationMode.Ticks, 120, false);

Hello litamm89,

Thanks for your reply.

Are you using the Strategy Builder or are you working with the Ninjascript editor?

What is the Calculate setting of the strategy (not of the trail stop), the options are: Calculate.OnBarClose, Calculate.OnEachTick, or Calculate.OnPriceChange?

If you are using the Strategy Builder the Calculate setting of the strategy is selected on the "Default Properties" screen.

If you are working with the Ninjascript editor, the Calculate setting is found under State.SetDefaults.
