Move SL during current candle

Phil · Wed, 22 Aug 2018 09:45:17 +0000

Hi all, I’m running a strategy on the 15MIN time frame on the DAX. I have a dynamic (trailing) SL that works with the “close” command. I wonder if there is any possibility to move the SL while the candle is still open? Using “close” the SL will only be moved once the trailing conditions are met and the 15MIN candle is closed. Going to another time frame for the strategy signal is not an option for me (i.e. going from 15 to 5min to have more checks for the SL). However, it would work if I could check the 1min candle close for the SL conditions and then adjust the SL based on this. Any hints are highly appreciated. Thanks!

Same message, same answer: use the code on the lowest timeframe declared by the timeframe instruction (1 minute in this case).

Sorry Kris75, it was not aimed to you specifically 🙂 I didn’t want to sound sarcastic!
