limitSell

ctx.order.limitSell(price, params)

At a glance — place a pending sell order at price, above the current market: it fills only if price rallies up to your level. Returns an OrderTicket for later cancel.

Signature

limitSell(price: number, params: EntryParams): OrderTicket

Example

order/limit-bracket
import { BollingerBands, defineStrategy, type EntryParams } from '@nexpips/sdk-trading';


/**
 * Fade de range sur bandes de Bollinger : un `limitBuy` sur la bande basse
 * (repli acheteur) et un `limitSell` sur la bande haute (repli vendeur),
 * tous deux visant un retour vers la moyenne.
 */
export default defineStrategy({
  symbol: 'EURUSD',
  timeframe: 'M15',
  risk: { maxRiskPercentPerTrade: 1, maxOpenPositions: 1, maxDailyLossPercent: 5 },
  setup: (api) => {
    const bb = api.use(BollingerBands, { source: 'close', period: 20, stdDev: 2 });


    return {
      onBar(ctx) {
        if (!ctx.position.isFlat || ctx.position.hasPendingOrder) return;


        const band = bb.at(0);
        const entry: EntryParams = {
          riskPercent: 1,
          stopLoss: { type: 'atr', period: 14, multiple: 2 },
          takeProfit: { type: 'price', value: band.middle },
        };


        ctx.order.limitBuy(band.lower, entry);
        ctx.order.limitSell(band.upper, entry);
      },
    };
  },
});

Fade a range: limitBuy on the lower band, limitSell on the upper.
