Hi
I have this code that looks for a certain criteria, then it's allowed to take a long entries within 40 bars after the criteria. I want all my orders to be limit orders for the entries, the way it works now is that it enters at the first bar where it finds some of the values from some of the limit orders, then it doesn't take any new limit orders on later bars (even though it's still within the 40 bars) when the price goes lower to my values. So my question is, can I get it to take multiple limit orders over several bars before it starts to sell?
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
I think you may be looking at a platform issue, not an EL issue. On your platform, in the settings for your Strategy, look for a way to "Allow up to [ x ] entry orders in the same direction as the currently held position:" NOTE: the quotes are how controlling multiple entries is stated in the "Strategy Properties" when using MultiCharts. I assume the verbiage is similar in other platforms.
