TradeIsEntry

Hello

I have started to code and trade with Zorro. Im just beginner and have only some codeing experience 13 years ago. Anyway, I have some problems with TradeIsEntry: PriseIsEntry dont regognice when the entry has done.

First solution, both are in run-function ():

//Entry, first

if((priceH(5)<priceH(4))....{
Entry=priceH(3);
Trade_price=priceH(3);
Counter1+=1;
}

// Examining if the first trade has been entered

if((TradeIsEntry) and (Counter1==1)){
Counter1+=1;
Trade_price=priceReal();

}

Second approch:

//Entry, first, in run function

if((priceH(5)<priceH(4))....{
enterLong(1,priceH(3),sl_10,0,0);
Trade_price=priceH(3);
Counter1+=1;
printf("Counter_BuyStop: %f\n",Counter1);
}

//Examine if trade is entried

int manage(){
if(TradeIsEntry) Counter1+=1;
return 0;
}

function run()
...

So how I can make the TradeIsEntry to work so I can determinate that stop limit has reached and trade is entried?

Thanks for your help

It is hard to interpret your code snippets out of context. Post the full code.

Ok, understand... its little a bit diffucult to put all to the code...

Is it possbile to give some short code example how the TradeIsEntry work? How I can detect that Entry=priceH(3) has been generated to actual trade? Or is the TradeIsEntry only possbile way or easiest?

Thanks

Can anybody give a example...

Did you even set up your TMF correctly? Are you pointing to it when you call enterLong/enterShort? If not, your code will not work.

These booleans will be set up whenever the TMF is called. Check them all and print stuff to the log to verify behavior:
TradeIsNewBar
TradeIsEntry
TradeIsStop
TradeIsProfit

At the bottom are some code samples showing a proper TMF setup:

Ok, so when Im using TradeIsEntry all these trades or entries( stops) have to set up via tmf process. So I have to make these trades/entries before run-function in different TMF-prosedure(as it is in manual)? And after that I can check if TradeIsEntry. Ok, I ll try this. Thanks Andrew!

Thanks for help...algo is now working...
