HOW TO SET SL BASED ON INDICATOR?

[aaronjohn0530]

I am using supertrend for my entry and exit strategy. I want to set my SL to buffer 1, which is the line but after several days of figuring how to do it, I still cant get it work. I have already trade custom price level on Buy Now block and even getting the value of buffer 1, storing it on a variable and assigning the variable to sl but still now working. I'm tired now. Please help.

What do you mean to set your SL at buffer1 between;

1. buffer 1 of Candle ID 0 at your Buy Now Block
2. buffer 1 of Candle ID 1 at your Buy Now Block
3. buffer 1 of Candle ID 0 after your Buy Now Candle
4. buffer 1 of Candle ID 0 at your Buy Now Block then always move it to buffer 1 of next Candle ID0 for every new Candle
   or...... etc.

and to make other people understand you better, please also share your project here.

Here's what I am trying to do sir.

I want my SL to be set on the line given by the indicator.

Here's what I have tried doing so far.

1. Using Custom price level on the Buy/Sell block. I have selected "My indicator" then set the SL value to Buffer 1 of candle 1.
2. Using modify variables. I have tried storing the value of Buffer 1 Candle 1 to a variable and assign it to SL.

@aaronjohn0530 it would be useful if you shared your project, or at least the interested part

@aaronjohn0530 as @ambrogio said and my explanation in the first reply, please cut and paste your project to be small on show only the discussing part here.

Else I could only guess that you may connect your block in the wrong order or store the variable in the wrong sequence.

Try this, put the buffer value into a comment, then when you can visually check that the returned value matches, create SL using indicator buffer
