I like to backtest this strategy: 1. If a long signal occurs on day 0 (signal day) then enter long on day 1 at least until 15:29 if the price exeeds signal day's high. 2. On execution of the entry order issue 2 exit orders combined by OCO: a. Stop loss at x USD of entry price b. MOC of entry day (last bar at 15:30) So the strategy holds the stock for one day only.
I got test data with 30 minutes per bar (attached SYM.csv). I already integrated a long signal into the data for simplicity. According to the test data I would expect the strategy to close the position with rule CloseLONG on Close of 2021-01-26 15:30:00 at 60.91. Why does it close at 2021-01-26 10:00:00 instead although the time index in the order book seems correct?
