Conditional TP Activation After Entry Zone Confirmation#635

Feature Request: Conditional TP Activation After Entry Zone Confirmation

Goal

When sending a Long signal, the strategy is to catch a small retracement by instructing Cornix to buy at a lower entry price (within a clear entry zone) than where the price is now. However, at the moment of signal transmission, the market price is still near the first Take Profit (TP1) while the retracement should still happen. In such cases, Cornix mistakenly interprets TP1 as an exit point immediately, instead of waiting for the trade to first enter the designated entry zone and it cancels the trade.

Vice versa for short of course.

Current Issue

• Cornix executes TP1 prematurely if the current market price is already in that range at the moment the signal is sent before the expected retracement takes place.
• This bypasses the intended entry zone logic, causing cancels without the chance for a proper entry.

Requested Feature

Introduce a mechanism so that:

1. Entry Zone Validation: TP targets only become active once the price has successfully entered the defined entry zone and an order is opened.
2. Conditional TP Activation: Until the entry is confirmed, TP1 should not be recognized or triggered as an exit point.
3. **Signal Formatting (Telegram Integration): Provide a way to structure TG signal messages so that entry zones are “locked” first, and TP targets are only considered after entry execution.

Example

Price is now at 112, we expect a retracement and want to send the entry/TP/SL already now.

LONG signal
Entry Zone: 100 – 105
TP1: 110
TP2: 115
Stop Loss: 95
Condition: Activate TP levels only after Entry Zone has been filled

Benefit

• Prevents premature cancels.
• Aligns execution with intended trading logic (retracement entry → then profit targets).
