strategy.entry. How to enter inside bar?

Question

How to enter a trade inside the bar, not at the close?

I tried to use "magnifier on" but it did not help.

strategy.entry("Long", strategy.long)
strategy.exit("Sell Stop", "Long", stop=lastOppositeFractalDown)
lastStop := lastOppositeFractalDown

Answer 1

strategy.entry() will enter with a market order by default. If you want to place limit orders, you need to use the limit or stop arguments.

limit (series int/float) An optional parameter. Limit price of the order. If it is specified, the order type is either 'limit', or 'stop-limit'. 'NaN' should be specified for any other order type.

stop (series int/float) An optional parameter. Stop price of the order. If it is specified, the order type is either 'stop', or 'stop-limit'. 'NaN' should be specified for any other order type.
