Re: Limit order hold with IOG true

Thank you all very much for the suggestions. As of now, my code is executing as expected and I no longer have the issue with limit orders being cancelled and resubmitted each tick. They are holding now. As for holding the value of a variable vs. holding the state of a condition, I need to investigat...

Re: Limit order hold with IOG true

Thanks for your help Tony. I actually found what I was missing on another forum. It was suggested to use intrabarpersist for the variables. I am now able to get the variable values to hold for all ticks except the opening tick of a bar, where the variable values should be reset. Below is basically w...

Re: Limit order hold with IOG true

Thanks

Re: Limit order hold with IOG true

Thanks for the reply, but one thing is still not clear. If the trade trigger variable ("trade") is set during the opening tick evaluation, then why is this value not held until the next bar opening tick? This variable should not be re-evaluated until the next bar opening tick. Same for the buyprice ...

Limit order hold with IOG true

In Multicharts, I'm having a problem getting a limit order to "stick" for more than one tick after sending, with IOG on/true. This is the same problem I've read about in a couple of other threads where the limit order is sent, cancelled, sent, cancelled, etc. after each tick. I have tried the sugges...
