Hello,

I want to enter and exit a trade depending upon specific price levels, for example, 18500 and 18580.

I have created indicators as follows: NQ 18500 with a value of 18500; NQ 18580 with a value of 18580;

System Tester: Buy: Cross(H,Fml("NQ 18500")) Sell: Cross(H,Fml("NQ 18580"))

I am getting no trades even though the above condition is true. Is there an alternative method of using a price level in a test?

Any advice appreciated.

Hello again,

The issue was caused by me not appreciating the System Tester parameters. Because of the equity required to trade the NASDAQ futures, the tester default was insufficient to enter any trade, which was immediately cancelled.

Selecting the Points Only option ignores the available equity value and the test runs perfectly OK.

(Thank you for looking).
