Question

When trying this code:

strategy.risk.allow_entry_in(close > ta.vwap(hlc3) ? strategy.direction.long : strategy.direction.short)

I get this error:

An argument of series string type was used but a simple string is expected

It happens from this:

close > ta.vwap(hlc3)

I am just trying to say that it should return true if the close is above vwap. What am I doing wrong here?

Sorry I m new to pine and this is my first script.

Answer 1

simple string means the variable s value should never change during the execution of the script.

You are passing your parameter with the ternary operator so its return value can change.

Answer 2

These things have always been achievable by using your own self created functions. For example alertconditon() can t use Series Strings (such as str.tostring(dynamic_float)) for the message parameter.

This is how this can be circumvented,

newShortEntryAlert(_condition, _title, _message) =>

    if na(pivothighCondition) and trend == 0 and ta.crossunder(low, short_62_fib_level)
        alertcondition(condition = _condition, title = _title, message = _message)

newLongEntryAlert(_condition, _title, _message) =>

    if na(pivothighCondition) and trend == 0 and ta.crossunder(low, short_62_fib_level)
        alertcondition(condition = _condition, title = _title, message = _message)

newShortAlert(na(pivothighCondition) and trend == 0 and ta.crossunder(low, short_62_fib_level),"Watch For Short(Sell) Entry", "Look For Short(Sell) Entry, Entry Price: " + str.tostring(short_62_fib_level) + ", Shares: " + str.tostring(short_position_shares) + "(" + str.tostring(short_position_size_in_lots) + "), T/P: " + str.tostring(short_position_tp) + ", S/L: " + str.tostring(short_position_sl))

newShortAlert(na(pivotLowCondition) and trend == 1 and ta.crossunder(high, long_62_fib_level), "Watch For Long(Buy) Entry",  "Look For Short(Sell) Entry, Entry Price: " + str.tostring(long_62_fib_level) + ", Shares: " + str.tostring(position_shares) + "(" + str.tostring(position_size_in_lots) + "), T/P: " + str.tostring(long_position_tp) + ", S/L: " + str.tostring(long_position_tp))
