Problem with Order Price

[subhiii]

I am having some problem with the fill price that i get using the:

Strategy.doLong("Go Long", Strategy.CLOSE, Strategy.THISBAR);

Basically, what i want it to do is to ENTER the LONG at the close of the current BAR. Whereas, for some reason, it always enters me at the close of the previous bar. I know it is a small problem but due to the lack of information available in EFS knowledgebase i am having this problem. Same is the case with .doShort.

Hello subhiii,

I don't think the problem lies with that single line of code. Please attach your complete formula so I can test it on my end. The code you provided should be returning the close of the current bar that is being processed.

it might be caused if you are using SetComputeOnClose()

try changing the wording THISBAR to NEXTBAR so you have the following,


Strategy.doLong("Go Long", Strategy.CLOSE, Strategy.NEXTBAR);

[subhiii]

if ( aArray[0] < aArray[1] && aArray[0] < BBBasis) {
if ( aArray[1] > BBBasis ) {


if ((Strategy.isInTrade() == true) && (Strategy.isShort() == true)) {

Strategy.doCover("Exit Short", Strategy.CLOSE, Strategy.THISBAR);
Strategy.doLong("Go Long", Strategy.CLOSE, Strategy.THISBAR);

getTarget = setTargetTime();
EntryPrice = close(0);
nStopPrice= (EntryPrice - 2.00);
chkTarget = true;

}else {if (Strategy.isInTrade() == false) {
Strategy.doLong("Go Long", Strategy.CLOSE, Strategy.THISBAR);
// DrawShapeRelative(0,low(), Shape.UPARROW, Color.Green, Image.ONTOP,"Buy");

EntryPrice = close(0);
// Change this incase want to change Targets according to time
getTarget = setTargetTime();
chkTarget = true;
nStopPrice=(EntryPrice - 2.00);
}}
}

}else {if (aArray[0] > aArray[1] && aArray[0] > BBBasis){
if (aArray[1] < BBBasis) {

if ((Strategy.isInTrade() == true) && (Strategy.isLong() == true)) {
Strategy.doSell("Exit Long", Strategy.CLOSE, Strategy.THISBAR);
Strategy.doShort("Go Short", Strategy.CLOSE, Strategy.THISBAR);


EntryPrice = close(0);

getTarget = setTargetTime();
chkTarget = true;
nStopPrice=(EntryPrice + 2.00);

}else {if (Strategy.isInTrade() == false){
Strategy.doShort("Go Short", Strategy.CLOSE, Strategy.THISBAR);

EntryPrice = close(0);
// Change this incase want to change Targets according to time
getTarget = setTargetTime();
chkTarget = true;
nStopPrice=(EntryPrice + 2.00) ;
}}
}
}}

Hello subhiii,

Thank you for posting more of your code. However, it is not apparent what the problem might be by only looking at this set of code. In order to verify the problem you are describing and provide a solution, I need to test the formula on my end. Please use the attachment feature when replying to attach your complete formula.
