AMP: GetAccountValue(AccountItem.CashValue) always return 0

[futures14]

Hi,

I have an account with AMP. When I execute:

double AccountBalance;
AccountBalance = GetAccountValue(AccountItem.CashValue);

AccountBalance is 0. Even though the balance on the account is not 0.

Ideas?

Thanks.

Hello futures14,

Thank you for your post.

Are these historical bars or backtesting in which the value is 0?

Hi Patrick,

This is using my live account. Not backtesting. Not historical bars.

I am trying to get my account balance on the OnStartUp method.

Thank you.

Hello futures14,

OnStartUp() would not have any details on the account values.

HI Patrick,

Thank you for the reply.

I moved the method from OnStartUp() to OnBarUpdate() and it is working now.

Thanks.
