Strategy Field

Sides isolated

The regular Sides setting stops TradersPost from entering positions on the opposite side of your strategy. Sides isolated goes further by not allowing any signal to exit an existing position on the opposite side.

Example: If your strategy is set to Bullish and you currently have a short open (whether from another strategy or because you placed it manually), a buy signal will not be allowed to exit the short position. TradersPost won't exit that short or enter a long.

When to use it:

  • You're running multiple strategies and don't want one to interfere with positions opened by another.
  • You manually place trades and don't want your automated strategy exiting them.
