I am getting a NullExceptionError at this line, do you get the same?

 ClosePosition(Positions.Find("WRB"));

I am using this code with actual order execution. this line of code always gives null! 

       var posnumb = Positions.Find("Test");

thats why closed positions throws an error null reference exception object not set to an instance of an object

It never recognises when a new position is opened. 

using System;
using System.Linq;
using cAlgo.API;
using cAlgo.API.Indicators;
using cAlgo.API.Internals;
using cAlgo.Indicators;

namespace cAlgo
{
    [Robot(TimeZone = TimeZones.UTC, AccessRights = AccessRights.None)]
    public class Test : Robot
    {
        [Parameter(DefaultValue = 0.0)]
        public double Parameter { get; set; }

        public int count = 0;

        protected override void OnStart()
        {

            count = 1;
            Print(count = 1);
            Print(Positions.Count);
        }

        protected override void OnBar()
        {
            // Put your core logic here

            ExecuteMarketOrder(TradeType.Buy, Symbol, 100000);

            var posnumb = Positions.Find("Test");
            Print(posnumb);

            if (posnumb != null)
            {
                Print("Close");
                Print(posnumb);
                ClosePosition(posnumb);
                Print("Close Positions");
                count = 0;
                Print("Position Closed EOD");

                Print(Positions.Count);
            }
        }
        /*
            if (Positions.Count < 2)
            {
                ExecuteMarketOrder(TradeType.Buy, Symbol, 100000);

            // Put your deinitialization logic here

Try to replace:

 

 var posnumb = Positions.Find("Test");
            Print(posnumb);

            if (posnumb != null)
            {
                Print("Close");
                Print(posnumb);
                ClosePosition(posnumb);
                Print("Close Positions");
                count = 0;
                Print("Position Closed EOD");

                Print(Positions.Count);
            }

to:

using System;
using System.Linq;
using cAlgo.API;
using cAlgo.API.Indicators;
using cAlgo.API.Internals;
using cAlgo.Indicators;

namespace cAlgo
{
    [Robot(TimeZone = TimeZones.UTC, AccessRights = AccessRights.None)]
    public class NewcBot : Robot
    {

        public int count;

        protected override void OnBar()
        {
            foreach (var posnumb in Positions.FindAll("Test"))
            {
                Print(posnumb);
                {
                    Print("Close");
                    Print(posnumb);
                    ClosePosition(posnumb);
                    Print("Close Positions");
                    count = 0;
                    Print("Position Closed EOD");

                    Print(Positions.Count);
                }
            }
        }

    }
