Changing TP or SL for all option positions
Changing TP or SL for all option positions
06 Aug 2013, 12:03
Hi,
Is there a script(Robot) to modify the TP or SL for all option postioins to specified price ?
also, Is there a robot that modifies the TP and/or SL for any new potion to a pre-set pip from overall average of position. (averages down/up then modify exisiting open potions TP and SL to be X pips from average entry pice) ?
where can I read the Average entry price ?

I would like to know if it is possible prior posting a job !
Posting in the jobs section is as easy as posting on the forum.
- Click the "Add New Job" button which will direct you to fill out a simple form.
- Enter the job description, budget and payment method.
- For the payment method choose from the drop down list either freelancer.com, odesk.com or direct payment.
If you choose freelancer/oDesk enter the URL link of the job post in the respective website, in the Job Listing text box.
The payment method is not handled by cTDN. You will have to choose between using a well known website for freelancers such as freelancer.com or odesk.com, or paying the developer directly.
Paying via freelancer or oDesk gives you the security of disputing the payment if something goes wrong. Certain fees apply. Please visit the respective websites for more details.
The developers will contact you either privately at the email address of your cTDN account or will post a reply.
Please note that anyone who will contact you, will not have access to your email address initially but only after you have replied back to them.

HI
the Robot below, modifies the TP+SL and calculates the average price for the trades that are placed manually.
however, if i place orders from CTrader, it doesn't update/modify the open potions , unless, I move/switch the screen to cAlgo !!
is there a fix for it through coding? or it is not designed to do that ?!

Yeah, there seems to be something that is not exactly working. Even though positions opened in cTrader do get modified when I test your code, sometimes not all positions get modified.
Maybe too many requests to modify a position.
I tried modifying the code to this and it seems to be working better, give it a try and see it the same problem persists:
you also need to include the Linq namespace.
using System.Linq;
...
// modify
foreach (Position position in Account.Positions.Where(position => Symbol.Code == position.SymbolCode))
{
double sl = position.TradeType == TradeType.Buy ? _slB : _slS;
double tp = position.TradeType == TradeType.Buy ? _tpB : _tpS;
if (position.TakeProfit == tp && position.StopLoss == sl)
continue;
if (position.TakeProfit != tp && position.StopLoss != sl)
{
if (!tp.Equals(0.0) && !sl.Equals(0.0))
Trade.ModifyPosition(position, sl, tp);
else if (tp.Equals(0.0) && sl.Equals(0.0))
Trade.ModifyPosition(position, null, null);
else if (tp.Equals(0.0) && !sl.Equals(0.0))
Trade.ModifyPosition(position, sl, null);
else
Trade.ModifyPosition(position, null, tp);
continue;
}
// md tp
if (position.TakeProfit != tp && position.StopLoss == sl)
{
if (!tp.Equals(0.0))
Trade.ModifyPosition(position, position.StopLoss, tp);
else
Trade.ModifyPosition(position, position.StopLoss, null);
continue;
}
//md sl
if (position.TakeProfit == tp && position.StopLoss != sl)
if (!sl.Equals(0.0))
Trade.ModifyPosition(position, sl, position.TakeProfit);
else if (tp.Equals(0.0) && sl.Equals(0.0))
Trade.ModifyPosition(position, null, position.TakeProfit);
}

Hi !
thanks for your time and effort,
yes, code is working fine now , without any problems.
There is one thing that needs correction in the last line:
//md sl
if (position.TakeProfit == tp && position.StopLoss != sl)
if (!sl.Equals(0.0))
Trade.ModifyPosition(position, sl, position.TakeProfit);
else if (tp.Equals(0.0) && sl.Equals(0.0))
Trade.ModifyPosition(position, null, position.TakeProfit);
// change to this
//md sl
if (position.TakeProfit == tp && position.StopLoss != sl)
if (!sl.Equals(0.0))
Trade.ModifyPosition(position, sl, position.TakeProfit);
else
Trade.ModifyPosition(position, null, position.TakeProfit);

Hi there,
Is there a way that the above code snippet of t4fast
"Modify all TakeProfit and StopLoss by Average Price"
to only just Modify all TakeProfit and StopLoss with a predefined static number of pips.
i.e: TakeProfit (pips) is set to 10. I want all the open positions TP to auto adjust to 10 pips and not by the average price.
