Run an external file

[Tremblinghandtrader]

Hello

Is there a way to run or start an external file/program but not a sound file. Something like,

Alert("myAlert", NinjaTrader.Cbi.Priority.High, "Reached threshold", "Alert1.wav", 10, Color.Black, Color.Yellow);


Thanks

Hello Tremblinghandtrader,
Unfortunately there are no native way to do it. However, since NinjaScript is basically C# you can create your custom methods to do it. For example the below sample code demonstrates how to read a text file using SreamReader.

For anyone else looking for a solution I found a very easy one.

Process.Start("Filenamepath");
