Hi apollinaire89,

Thanks for posting in our forum. Did you have any problems with the code you posted. I presume that it is only a part of the code of the cBot.

Best Regards,

Hi apollinaire89,

It seems correct to me, assuming that the rest of the cBot is correctly implemented.

Dear Panagiotis,

the stopp loss and take profit is not set in order after the code line has been added. Could you please help here if possible ?

Hi apollinaire89,

Can you explain what do you mean? This line of code should not affect your trading in any way. Do you get any messages in your log?

Hi apollinaire89,

I don't know why do you expect to see a SL or a TP. You do not set any here.

 private void Open(TradeType tradeType)
        {
            var position = Positions.Find("SampleRSI", SymbolName, tradeType);
            var volumeInUnits = Symbol.QuantityToVolumeInUnits(Quantity);
 
            if (position == null)
                ExecuteMarketOrder(tradeType, SymbolName, volumeInUnits, "SampleRSI");
        }
