I am writing an EOD MM script that add to an existing position if today's close is lower than the entry price.

[OnEndPeriod]-->

if(close[0]<pos.EntryPrice)
{
Functions.AddLongPosition(pos.Symbol, shares,Orders.CloseMarketOrder() );
}

This enters the trade Tommorow. Is it possible to scale-in at Today's close?

Best Answer
It enters a trade depending on your trading system settings.

To scale-in at today's close, use:
Orders.CloseMarketOrder(-1, 5) // Valid for 5 days

The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose. You should be aware of all the risks associated with trading and seek advice from an independent financial advisor if you have any doubts.
