TriggerCustomEvent

[funk101]

Is it possible to have multiple "TriggerCustomEvents()" in your code? Or should you consider it a one-time, sort of, wrapper around some custom logic?

I believe you can have multiple calls

I use it twice in an indicator. What do you doubt about? Compilation? Scheduling conflict?

I know nothing 'bout it, that's all.

TriggerCustomEvent()

What does this method *actually* do? Is some form of threading method?

[Ralph]

If you define your own events then they could conflict with the NT threads, i.e. in case they access the same data structures of your code. TriggerCustomEvents() schedules your events.

Definition
This method provides a way to use your own custom events (such as a Timer object) so that internal NinjaScript indexes and pointers are correctly set prior to processing user code triggered by your custom event. When calling this event, NinjaTrader will synchronize all internal pointers and then call your custom event handler where your user code is located.
