EasyLanguage Getting Daily P/L

Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

I have another Easy Language question if you don't mind. Still learning... :crap:

 

How can I get my P/L for the day ?

I want to set a daily goal / daily loss and want the strategy to no longer place any trades once the goal/loss is hit.

 

I found the "NETPROFIT" reserved word but that returns total net profit, doesn't seem to reset at the end of the day.

 

Any idea ? Thanks in advance.

Alright.. I got this so for but it doesn't seem to work for some reason. Any tips ? Ideas ? Thanks in advance...

 

Inputs:

DayMaxProf(100),

DayMaxLost(20);

Variables:

NProf(0),

OProf(0),

PLToday(0),

PLB4Today(0),

MP(0),

TargetHit(FALSE);

 

MP = MARKETPOSITION;

NProf = NETPROFIT;

OProf = OPENPOSITIONPROFIT;

 

If DATE <> DATE[1] THEN

BEGIN

TargetHit = FALSE;

PLB4Today = NProf[1] + OProf[1];

END;

 

PLToday = NProf + OProf - PLB4Today;

 

IF PLToday>=DayMaxProf OR PLToday<=NEG(DayMaxLost) THEN TargetHit = TRUE;

 

IF TargetHit=FALSE THEN BEGIN

..

.

.

.Strategy goes here

.

.

END;

 

:crap:

Figured it out... actually it was something silly...

 

My code is correct.. it's just EasyLanguage ignores variable changes from within the code. It look at variables from Strategy Format window. I have to remember to adjust Input entries from there, not from within the code.
