script sendmail()

[Thomas79]

Hi
i read a lot of thing on the forum but not the answer of my 2 questions :

1st : the script for sendmail on the guide is: SendMail("[email protected]", "[email protected]", "Trade Alert", "Buy ES");
i want to write on the subject "Trade Alert on Apple" for example, and Apple is the equitie where the strategy is running... what is the script to integrate the name of this equities on the subject of the email ?

2sd : i read on the guide than the script sendmail() only works on real time... but if i get end of day data from Kinetic or yahoo, i run all my strategies on the 500 equities of the S&P after the daily close and the imported data from Kinetic or Yahoo... the email will be send ?

thanks for the answer.
Thomas

Hi Thomas,

You can use property Instrument.MasterInstrument.Name for this.

No, the free yahoo and Kinetick end of day connections do not provide real time data, so will not see send mail processed using them. Please see the following link for our providers that offer real time data:

excuse me but i'm a newbee, the synthax should be:
SendMail ("[email protected]","myemai@yahoo.fr,"Instrument.MasterInstrument.Name", "Buy this equity !");
i tried that the object of the email give me Instrument.MasterInstrument.Name

i don't understand how to use your synthax

You need it without quotation marks.
SendMail ("[email protected]","[email protected]", Instrument.MasterInstrument.Name,"Buy this equity !");

Hello Thomas79,
If you are trying to CC another email as in send an email to two different emails, there is currently no documented support for multiple emails with the SendMail() method. So in the case that you want to send an email to two different emails you would need to make a second SendMail() call.

SendMail ("[email protected]","[email protected]", Instrument.MasterInstrument.Name,"Buy this equity !");
SendMail ("[email protected]","[email protected]", Instrument.MasterInstrument.Name,"Buy this equity !");

You should be able to use a ; to seperate email address in the string, although this is undocumented.

"[email protected]; [email protected]"

Please let me know if I may be of additional assistance.

but i would like on the core of the email have the data series of the strategie, because i run this strategie on a lot of equity on daily, 60 minutes, 30 minutes and 15 minutes.

Hello Thomas79,

I believe you are referring to what the time frame of the chart is this correct?

If you are trying to get the bar type I.E. 30 minute, 5 minute, etc. then you can use the following. This would make a string that has the value and id for example 1 minute or 30 tick

Bars.Period.Value.ToString() + Bars.Period.Id.ToString()

In combination with your email before it would like this:

SendMail ("[email protected]","[email protected]", Instrument.MasterInstrument.Name,"Buy this equity on chart: " +  Bars.Period.Value.ToString() + Bars.Period.Id.ToString());

in the email it would look like this:

Buy this equity on chart: 1 Minute

Please let me know if I may be of additional assistance.
