In multi-charts i have written a system using power language that I am looking to optimize I am having issues getting the trade to actually play out the way I want
The entry for the strategy is determined by the cross of a fast ema and a slow ema on the 1 day chart of the USD/JPY and is also limited by whether price is above the 20 day moving average when optimized I should be able to test it on the 1 hour chart with the same code and instead just use a 480 period MA
My problem is I am able to write the code for an entry order but I cannot figure out why it wont recognize the ema's crossing under represented by a condition to exit a position I am using multi charts and the regular PowerLanguage if anyone can help I can send you the code to see whats wrong
I am able to use "Buy" for entering positions but some of the other reserve words were incorrect and I think I had a misplaced End; but I was finally able to compile thanks for the help
Ryan, my bad it should read "Buy" for entering a long position. That's the correct reserved word for entering a long position.
One thing I also noticed, that you only need to use "SetStopLoss ( Stopdist );" once, in case you are using it with the same value. If you want to use different stops for a long and short, you'd have to place it within a
bracket.
You can use the default stop code, to choose if the stop amount should be used for the whole position or per contract
