PosTradeEntryPrice(PosAgo,TradeNumber)

Where:

PosAgo - a numerical expression, specifying the position:
0 - open position;
1 - one position back (the last position closed);
2 - two positions back, etc.
TradeNumber - a numerical expression, specifying the number of trade (zero-based).

Notes

  • This function can only be used in signals.
  • To retrieve the total number of trades in specified position use PosTradeCount.
  • Use PosTradeExitPrice to get the exit price for an exit order.
  • Use EntryPrice to get the (average) entry price for the whole position.

Example

PosTradeEntryPrice(0, 1);

Will return a value of 100.2 for the second trade of the open position, if this trade was opened by the order filled at 100.2.
