Hi all,

I'm currently working on my first automated strategy and I'm having some problems with the following;

When the EMA is equal to the entry price --> Close position at market.
Im currently using the following coding, but I cant figure out why it doesn't work. Note that I don't get a coding error, but when I use the strategy analyser, the position is closed out on a different spot.

if (EMA(100)[0] == Position.AvgPrice);
{
ExitShort(0, 30000, "ExitEMAShort", "");
}

As you can see in the attached picture, the position is closed out only a few bars after the entry while the EMA is not near the entry price and I can't figure out why it closes the position at this specific price.
Could anyone help me out with this?

Thanks in advance!

Dennis

Try removing the semicolon on the end of the if statement line.
Also don't use == but use <= the price will never be exactly the same.

Thanks, it works now! The sollution is so simple. Now you notice I'm a beginner in coding ninjatrader strategy's.

I'm sure I will be comming with more questions. Is it best to create 1 topic with different questions as they arrise, or should I make a topic for each subject?

Which ever. Just hope someone responds.
