EnterLongLimit

[zooinek]

Hi,

i have question..
when i am already in long position it is possible to enter to next long position?
So to be in position with 2 contracts but to enter into these two position in different time.

For example:
i have signal for entering to long, so i will enter to long.
I used EnterLongLimit(1, price);
Few minutes later i will recive next signal to enter to long position, so i will use
EnterLongLimit(1, price);
And 10 minutes later i will recive to enter to short position, so i will use
{
ExitLong();
EnterShortLimit(1, priceTwo);
}


Am i really in two long positions. Had i really two contracts for long?
Or the secong enter long was just ignored?

Thank you

It depends on your EntriesPerDirection setting.
If it is set to 1 then second entry will be ignored

and where could i modify the entries per direction setting?

It can be either set in the strategy Initialize() - http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/H...Direction.html

or when you start up your strategy (look under OrderHandling) -
