Sync account position

[HelenL]

asafs, Thank you for your reply. We would like to see how this is used within the code, if possible, as we are having some difficulty getting the statements to compile and have something wrong at present. Are you able to upload some code fragments which will help us? Thanks - Helen

Please check the code below. It processes historical orders and it looks like restores current market position when you load strategy. Sync Account Position is turned off.

if( CurrentBar < Bars.Count-1 )
{
	foreach( Order order in Account.Orders )
	{
		if( (CurrentBar == Bars.GetBar(order.Time)-1   )&& order.OrderState == OrderState.Filled   )
		{
							
			if( order.OrderAction == OrderAction.Buy )
			{
				if( order.OrderType == OrderType.Market )
				{
					if( Close[0] >= order.AvgFillPrice ) EnterLongStop(  order.Quantity, order.AvgFillPrice, order.Name );
					if( Close[0] < order.AvgFillPrice ) EnterLongLimit(  order.Quantity, order.AvgFillPrice, order.Name );
				}
				if( order.OrderType == OrderType.Limit )EnterLongLimit( order.Quantity, order.LimitPrice, order.Name );
			}
			if( order.OrderAction == OrderAction.Sell )
			{
				if( order.OrderType == OrderType.Market )
				{
					if( Close[0] >= order.AvgFillPrice ) ExitLongStop(  order.Quantity, order.AvgFillPrice);
					if( Close[0] < order.AvgFillPrice ) ExitLongLimit(  order.Quantity, order.AvgFillPrice);
				}
				if( order.OrderType == OrderType.Stop )ExitLongStop(  order.Quantity, order.StopPrice );
			}
		}
	}

Account position / Order status

Is there any way to check account position status from within a strategy?
In NT8 does:

Account.Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Flat / Long /Short
get the account NOT strategy position?

Hello everington_f,


"In NT8 does: Account.Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Flat / Long /Short get the account NOT strategy position?"


To monitor the account position in NT 8, you would need to use:

[LEFT] if (PositionAccount .MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Flat )
                                               {
//Do Something
                                               }
