Setting Net Profit as a condition to run the cbots main logic.
21 Feb 2023, 08:55

Hi,

Is it possible to set a value for Net Profit on a per symbol basis? This value has to reset every day.

Given that the same cbot is running on, say, 5 different charts/instruments/symbols.

And I want the cbots logic to run only if the Net Profit hasn't been reached for the specific market, say, GBP/USD.

For instance, net profit of 10 pips or $100 has been reached for USD/JPY but not for other markets - if this is possible then the cbot would stop trading USD/JPY as the condition has been met.

Is this possible?

Hi there,

Here is an example

var netProfit = Positions.Where(p => p.SymbolName == SymbolName).Sum(p => p.NetProfit);

Including this example what would the code look like if the intention was to reset the net profit for the specific symbol on a daily basis?

Or is it done automatically whenever a new trading session begins?

I'm asking for a useable sample code.

RE: RE: I do not know how to code I'm just sorting out the core logic units of the cbot. In the given example how would the SymbolName be defined?

You can check the Server.Time and reset the value whenever the day changes. If you don't know how to program, then better assign the job to a professional.
