ExitLong() for ProfitTarget - 06/12/23 15:45
Hi,
I want to partially exit trades at limit (Profit Target) so I save the trade information and use ExitLong() to exit.
For some reason (probably my mistake) the trade is executed not in the current bar at the price I enter but at the open of the next bar (market order).
Next is the logic to close the trade. According to the manual it should enter a limit order at the given price. What am I doing wrong?
Thank you,
Jaime

Code
if (tp_pos == LONG)
{
if (priceH(0) >= tp_value)
{
exitLong("", tp_value, 0);
tp_pos = NEUTRAL;
}
}
Thank you,
Jaime
