But "Both (Long and Short)" option, it should be both directions; otherwise this option would be not functional.
The same condition, if strategy has 1 short position, it would flat 1 short and fill 1 long at the same time, same bar.
To enable "Both(Long and Short) without Entry and Exit Symmetry, if strategy has 1 long position, it would only flat 1 long and then no position at the bar.
The same condition, if strategy has 1 short position, it would flat 1 short and then no position at the bar.
If I want to generate strategies with only long or only short, there are options for "Only Long" and "Only Short" that I can choose. I don't need to choose "Both" option.
3 options of Both, Only Long and Only Short, they are supposed to work different way.
I'm not sure if my understanding is as same as SQX, but current functionality doesn't work this way.
Status changed from New to Refused
- if it should have both Long and Short rules
- if the Long and Short rules are symmetric to each other logically
It can happen that srategy with symmetric rules will not have any Long or any short orders, because the responsible rules is never triggered.
If you want to configure strategy to revert orders from Long to Short or from Short to Long you can choose "Enter/reverse at Market" order type in Settings -> Building blocks.
Standard "Enter at market" doesn't reverse the trade when there is a signal to opposite direction.
