QUIT is the function to stop the strategy. It has nothing to deal with the way you are calculating your profit!
If you have used STRATEGYPROFIT, it is indeed the realized profit.
The floating profit could be calculated as with this snippet:
1floatingprofit = (((close-positionprice)*pointvalue)*countofposition)/pipsize //actual trade gainsCode is read at bar close, so if your strategy is running on a 5-minutes timeframe and you want it to be read more times during a bar for orders management, use the TIMEFRAME instruction with a lower timeframe and place all your desired functions you want to act faster below it.

Is there any way to stop system only after stop is moved?
I am using the option “when trading system is stopped – Remain open” I want to keep my position when I am in profit
12/15/2020 at 6:08 PM #153860I suppose I’m doing something wrong because the system stops as soon as it detects the quit function in the code. It doesn’t even enter the market, it stops the system right away with the following code as a test run (it’s not my strategy, let’s be clear about that 😀 ):
123456789IF NOT LongOnMarket THENBUY 1 CONTRACTS AT MARKETElsif longonmarket and barindex - tradeindex > 1 thensell at marketendifIf strategyprofit < 100 thenquitendifI get the following message from PRT: “this trading system has been stopped because of the presence of the quit function in the code.”
How about that?
12/15/2020 at 6:30 PM #153865When the strategy starts STRATEGYPROFIT is zero, so line 7 is immediately TRUE and line 8 executed to stop the strategy.
I suggest modifying line 7 so that it checks the strategy has entered at least one trade:
1If strategyprofit < 100 AND strategyprofit[1] <> 0 thenbut this will exit immediately if the first trade is a losing one.
