Hi All

I want to call FibonacciPivotPoint() method using the High, Low & Close values and use the results in the strategy. I am not sure how to pass the HLC info and get back the calculated values like PP, R1, S1 etc. Any help here is much appreciated

self.pvData_H = 377.75
self.pvData_L = 317.05
self.pvData_C = 334.10

self.Fib = bt.indicators.FibonacciPivotPoint()

Hi All

I am using optimizer functionality to evaluate the best parameter combination that I can use in my trading strategy. The output from the optimizer for each parameter set (Slow_EMA, Fast_EMA) along with it's value are added to the list and the code for the same is

val_list = [self.params.sl_maperiod, self.params.ft_maperiod,self.broker.getvalue()]
print (val_list)

the first column is Slow_EMA value and the second column is Fast_EMA value and the third column is the cash value that the optimizer generates for the Slow_EMA and Fast_EMA combination. I am providing the output below

[5, 20, 101416.90550000001]
[5, 21, 101717.35600000001]
[5, 22, 101942.15999999999]
[5, 23, 101938.65450000002]
[5, 24, 101785.45050000002]
[5, 25, 102084.91550000002]
[5, 26, 101634.87550000002]
[5, 27, 101835.576]
[5, 28, 101889.99200000001]
[5, 29, 101906.11300000001]

I want to sort this output in a descending order based on column 3(Cash Value) such that the record with the highest value gets displayed at the top.

Please help me here

@bernardlin You have to check whether the position is a Long Position or Short position, before trying to close it. The position object has size property which will be +ve for Long position and -Ve for short position. You have to check for this before trying to close a position

What it happening in your code is, the position check is being evaluated and since the system does not know whether you are looking to close a long or short position it is simply executing the condition that is being met in the 'Else' block

Hope it helps
