i am having trouble getting signals working on a bot i built i am trying to forward test with paper trading. Do i need to program the signals like i would for exploration to get them to forward test? // Buy logic: Buy = Cross ( ShortEMA, LongEMA ); // Sell logic: Sell = Cross ( LongEMA, ShortEMA ); //BUY and short SIGNAL C2TradingSignal(sigBTO, price limit = Buy); C2TradingSignal(sigBTO, price limit = sell); is there something wrong with my code? ---

Your `C2TradingSignal` commands are wrong. Say your desired buying limit price is X and a selling limit price is Y. Amount is 100. Then, your C2TradingSignal commands should be: `C2TradingSignal(sigBTO, Price=X, Amount = 100, PriceType = priceLimit);` `C2TradingSignal(sigSTC, Price=Y, Amount = 100, PriceType = priceLimit);` If you are not trading stocks, then add also `TypeOfSymbol`: `C2TradingSignal(sigBTO, Price=X, Amount = 100, PriceType = priceLimit, TypeOfSymbol=instrmntFuture);` See [C2TradingSignal - - Seetu - Strategy Programming Language](https://collective2.com/seetudoc/c2tradingsignal.html) BTW: `Buy` and `Sell` are not prices. They are boolean values. (More precisely: vectors of boolean values.) ---

Send @MYMH21 2020-12-21 00:13:00 BTC 0.00 Market Market 0.00 0.00 DAY Stock i can get the signals to post although i need to get them to go through. with a set amount i found the amount in seetu script refrence when i input it did not work Amount(1); i tried both C2TradingSignalCond(ParentSignalType,SignalType,Amount = 1,PriceType = priceMarket,Duration = tifGTC,); also i keep getting an email everytime i try to take seetu bot live saying Systemid 133520797 has sent 41 new signals in past 120 seconds. No more signals can be posted until five minutes elapses. Please contact [matthew@collective2.com](mailto:matthew@collective2.com) if you would like to discuss loosening this restriction. Current cap is 40. (C2 code=maxAPIsigs\_x) ![](https://ssl.gstatic.com/ui/v1/icons/mail/images/cleardot.gif) When i check the exploration and signals i only get about 17-31 signals a day mostly day trades held for 10 minutes anyone know how to fix this i used the SetOption(“ApplyFromTime”, “2012-01-02”); SetOption(“ApplyToTime”, “2015-01-02”); to change the date it starts to try to bring the signals in on time i will find out if ti worked in the morning i assume its in EST ---

how do i define x and y would open price work something like X = (Open); Y =(Open); could you put in X = (Open +1); for open price of next candle plus 1 dollar? Y = (Open +1);
