Hi there,

Could you please send us some troubleshooting information the next time this happens? Please paste a link to this discussion inside the text box before you submit it.

Best regards,

I made a simple indicator that will cause this issue to occur 100% of the times. The line causing the issue is DrawText or drawing anything every tick, if I am drawing something or drawing on the chart window, the object will lose focus as soon as Calculate is invoked on the indicator.

Code below:

using System;using System.Collections.Generic;using System.Linq;using System.Text;using cAlgo.API;using cAlgo.API.Collections;using cAlgo.API.Indicators;using cAlgo.API.Internals;namespace cAlgo{    [Indicator(AccessRights = AccessRights.None, IsOverlay = false)]    public class DrawingBug : Indicator    {        public override void Calculate(int index)        {            IndicatorArea.RemoveObject("test");            IndicatorArea.DrawText("test", "BUG!!!", Bars.Last().OpenTime, 0, Color.Red);        }    }}

Hi razor_00,

Thank you, I have forwarded this to the product team for resolution. In the meanwhile, the issue is caused by the RemoveObject method, which in this case is redundant, you don't need to remove an object in order to redraw it. If you remove that line of code, it should fix the problem.

Best regards,

Panagiotis

Thanks for your reply, I will modify my indicator, anyway the remove and draw calls should not call this behaviour, is that correct? Is that going to be fixed in future versions?

Yes that is correct, we will fix this in an upcoming version

RE: RE: Open positions per Bar - OnTick

Hi Ryan,

You can use a flag to achieve this e.g. bool CanTrade. Set it to false when a trade is taken and then set it back to true when a new bar is opened.

Best regards,

Panagiotis

 

Thanks Panagiotis,

I have attempted the code below, but believe I am missing something as it places multiple trades per bar, but trader per bar after bar is opened. I attempted to limit positions with Positions.Count, but that stops it being placed per bar. 

 

Have I missed something?

 

Thanks for your help.

 

private bool _canTrade;
private int barCountSinceLastPosition;
        protected override void OnStart()
        {
            _ema1 = Indicators.GetIndicator<SampleEMA>(Source1, Period1);
            _ema2 = Indicators.GetIndicator<SampleEMA>(Source2, Period2);
             _ema3 = Indicators.GetIndicator<SampleEMA>(Source3, Period3);
            _rsi = Indicators.RelativeStrengthIndex(Source3, Period3);
           
           Bars.BarOpened += Bar_Opened;
         }
        
           void Bar_Opened(BarOpenedEventArgs args)
                   {
                      _canTrade = false;
            
                   }
        
         protected override void OnTick()
        {   
           if (IncludeBreakEven == true)
                GoToBreakEven();
               
            var Ema1 = _ema1.Result.Last(0);
            var Ema2 = _ema2.Result.Last(0);
            var Ema1i = _ema1.Result.Last(2);
            var Ema2i = _ema2.Result.Last(2);
            var Ema3 = _ema3.Result.LastValue;
            var rising = _ema1.Result.IsRising();
            var falling = _ema2.Result.IsFalling();
            var rising2 = _ema2.Result.IsRising();
            var falling2 = _ema1.Result.IsFalling();
                          
             if (Ema1 > Ema2 && falling && falling2 && Symbol.Bid == Bars.OpenPrices.Last(0) - (pips * Symbol.PipSize))
            {
                
                   if (Positions.Count(x => x.TradeType == TradeType.Sell && x.Label == InstanceName) == 0)
                
                         {
                               double volume = Symbol.QuantityToVolumeInUnits(lotsize);
                               ExecuteMarketOrder(TradeType.Sell, SymbolName, volume, InstanceName, SL, TP);
                
                           }
                               {
                                  _canTrade = true;
                               }
                                    if(_canTrade)
                                    {
                                        if (Ema1 > Ema2 && falling && falling2 && Symbol.Bid == Bars.OpenPrices.Last(0) - (pips * Symbol.PipSize))
                                         {
                                             double volume = Symbol.QuantityToVolumeInUnits(lotsize);
                                             ExecuteMarketOrder(TradeType.Sell, SymbolName, volume, InstanceName, SL, TP);
                                         }
                                   }
                              }
                          {
                    CloseSell();
                     } 
                    
               }

Hi Ryan,

_canTrade needs to be set to false in OnTick() and to true in OnBar()
