Hello- I created a multi-instrument strategy and want to better understand sycncing the strategy to my account. For my entry orders I'm using the following structure: entryOrder = EnterLong(BarsInProgress, shares1[BarsInProgress],"BuyMkt1"+BarsInProgress); For exiting this particular order I'm using the following code: entryOrder = ExitLong("BuyMkt1"+BarsInProgress); I am declaring the following in my variables section: private IOrder[] activeOrders = new IOrder[100];
So for syncing purposes, how exactly does the strategy identify or keep track of the exact market order entered in this case? Does it work by only remembering the tag "BuyMkt1"+BarsInProgress which it uses to associate it with other order parameters Market order, time, etc? If you notice, the exit statement doesn't indicate how many shares to sell but I verified from strategy backtest that it is correctly selling the quantity = shares1[BarsInProgress] so I'm thinking it must be remembering it only by the tag "BuyMkt1"+BarsInProgress".
2nd question: If I make a benign tweak in my strategy -say adding print statements or graphics- later in time after I deploy and sync, will the strategy forget the shares that were previously bought and mess everything up?
Thank you
