Question about Autotrading in Sync mode

Postby Leo » 28 Oct 2015

Hi all,

I've a trading system running in Sync mode via Interactive Brokers, and have noticed that if for any reason I have to reset MC when a trade has already been opened, the trading system repaints the chart drawing a different "initial entry" point.
As ytou can see in the below picture, I entered short EURUSD at 1.10523, an afterward had to shut down MC and now have an "initial entry" point at the last bar.

The question is: does this affect the trading system exit point(s) in any way?
Thanks in advance

Hello Leo,

It depends on the strategy logic. For example if you use BarsSinceEntry in your code then you may have different results running auto trading continuously compared to restarting it.
