I have been racking my brain and looking through the support board for an answer to this question to no avail, hopefully you all can provide me with some clarity. I have a 0-120-0 chart with a Buy condition in column K that is triggered set so that whenever the current candle's low is lower than the past 23 candles. My intention is that this enter into position as soon as the condition is met. However, despite the trigger showing a '1' once this condition is met, the position is only entered upon the close of the 120 minute candle. I have set the stop prices to the lowest price in the past 23 candles in J22 and have iterated through Market, Stop, and Market If Touched orders in J71-J74. I have also tried a spreadsheet config that only allows for signaling once per bar which seems to not make a difference and is likely irrelevant to this case. I am attaching my .scss file and chartbook, here. Hopefully you all are able to help. Again, the main thing is being able to market it the second a trigger has occurred versus waiting till the end of a bar. Thank you |

I may not completely understand the question, but everything was set to default values aside from 'Signal Once Per Bar Entry' which is set to 'Yes' and 'Support Reversals' which is also set to 'Yes'. I have set everything to default settings as well, and have seen no change in behavior. |
