I am workin on an auto trade system
I am having a problem with nuisance trades
basically a trade that is activated when the my auto trade signal is transitioning from a neutral (no trade) position to a actual trade
for example if i were using stochastics cross for a signal and it was transitionag from a buy position to a sell position the stochs do not always remain crossed especially during the transition from buy to sell
this results in mulitple that are quickly closed as the cross signal would be momentarily not true

my thoght is that if there were a time associated with the signal
for example afetr entering a trade on a stochastic x to the downside the trade would remain in effect for x minutes regardless if the stochs uncrossed in that time frame
after the time frmae elapses if the singnal is still true it remains short
whereas if the time frame elapses an the signal and the signal is no longer true it sould close the position

thx

on that same note when i reach a price level to close the auto trader reenters is there a way to automatically cancel auto trade when a target is reached?
