NinjaTrader globals

[zweistein]

Hello,

in NT7 I could access global variables in the static object NinjaTrader.Cbi.Globals
for example I could have access to a Connections object (a list of Connection)

In NT8 this has changed, It seems to be in NinjaTrader.Core.Globals , but it is not there.

Any help available? I would be intererested in the global Connections object.


Best regards
Andreas

That should do the trick for the Connection object. Are there any other specific objects you are looking for?

In NT7 I would do this (see below) to get current market data for an Instrument.

In NT8 however I cannot find the Connections object any more.

namespace Zweistein {

public class NinjaTraderController {

static public double CurrenMarketData(NinjaTrader.Cbi.Instrument instrument)
{

foreach (NinjaTrader.Cbi.Connection Connection in NinjaTrader.Cbi.Globals.Connections)
{
if (Connection.MarketDataStreams != null)
{
MarketDataDictionary d = Connection.MarketDataStreams;
MarketData md = d[instrument];
if (md != null)
{
MarketDataEventArgs mdea = md.Last;
if (mdea == null) return 0.0;
return mdea.Price;
}
}
}
return 0.0;
}

}
}

There is a plethora of Connection stuff exposed.
