Here's my code that's supposed to exit at either my stop-loss price
level or my profit target, whichever comes first. However, it's not
working as I had planned. Is this not the right approach to do this?
Furthermore, I haven't added in the code yet, but for sells
triggered by my sell-stop price level I not only want to sell one
contract to offset the long position, but now I want to be short one
contract.
Any ideas about what I'm doing wrong in my code?
If this can be done without using a loop please let me know as I
haven't seen any good complex examples of buy/sell conditions which
don't use loops. Again, thanks.
//Profit Target and Stop Loss conditions to exit the trade
for( i = 0; i < BarCount; i++ )
{
if ( Buy[i] == 1 && High[i] >= (1 + Profit_Target/100) * BuyPrice
[i])
{
Sell[i] = 1;
SellPrice[i] = (1 + Profit_Target/100) * BuyPrice[i];
}
if ( Buy[i] == 1 && Low[i] <= (1 - MAE_Threshold/100) * BuyPrice[i])
{
Sell[i] = 1;
SellPrice = (1 - MAE_Threshold/100) * BuyPrice[i];
}
else
Sell[i] = 0;
}
