Hi,
I've been coming across a lot of Error 040s due to the way I've tried to implement a method to limit the total amount of trades that a strategy can execute.
Here is an example of what's happening. There is only 1 optimize call:
function ABC();{ // Trading strategy 1
algo("ABC:L")
// Maximum Trade Limiter
var total;
for(current_trades) total++;
if (total >= 4) return;
Stop = 3 * ATR(10);
Trail = optimize(1,1,6) * ATR(10);
... <strategy code> ...
}
function run(){
set(PARAMETERS);
while(algo(loop("ABC",...))){
if(algo == "ABC") ABC();
if(algo == "...") ...
...
}
}
I have narrowed down the issue to the trade limiting lines. Commenting them out will result in an optimization without Error 040.
Does anyone have a suggestion for a better way to limit the number of trades an algo places without causing these errors?
Thanks!
