GetAtmStrategyStopTargetOrderStatus()

[ThatManFromTexas]

When using an ATM strategy with one stop loss and one profit target, what name does NT assign to the profit target and the stop loss? I tried using "Profit target" and "Stop loss" with the sample code from the ATM help section. But I don't get a print out in the output window.

What is the proper syntax to use the Order State of the stops or targets as a boolean?

if(ordersS[i, 2]=="Filled")
do something

Hello,

NinjaTrader uses the following names for the first stop loss and target of an ATM strategy:

Target1
Stop1


To check this you can use orders tab, name column for these orders.

if(ordersS[i, 2]=="Filled")

Correct - There's no OrderState type returned for this, so have to check for the string.

Thanks for the quick reply!

on this code. Any suggestions?

string[,] ordersS = GetAtmStrategyStopTargetOrderStatus("Stop1", atmStrategyId);
 
    // Check length to ensure that returned array holds order information
    if (ordersS.Length > 0)
    {
        for (int i = 0; i < ordersS.GetLength(0); i++)
         {
            Print("Current state is " + ordersS[i, 2].ToString());
			
			if(ordersS[i, 2]=="Filled")
			tsbtnBuy.Text = "Buy Range";
			tsbtnBuy.BackColor = Color.Green;
			
         }
    }

To track down what is happening, add Try - Catch blocks to your code. This will indicate what what object you're accessing that is causing the exception.

Is that, Target1 or TARGET1? Stop1 or STOP1 ?

[NinjaTrader_RyanM1]

You can use either of those or even tArGeT1 and it should find the order.

You can use either of those or even tArGeT1 and it should find the order.

Is this the proper syntax:

string[,] Sorders = GetAtmStrategyStopTargetOrderStatus(Stop1, orderId);

or should it be

string[,] Sorders = GetAtmStrategyStopTargetOrderStatus("Stop1", orderId);


From the Output Window:

**NT** GetAtmStrategyStopTargetStatus() method error: AtmStrategyId '' does not exist or is already in terminated state
**NT** GetAtmStrategyStopTargetStatus() method error: AtmStrategyId '' does not exist or is already in terminated state

private string	Stop1				= string.Empty;

string[,] Sorders = GetAtmStrategyStopTargetOrderStatus(Stop1, orderId);

if (Sorders.Length > 0)
    {
        for (int i = 0; i < Torders.GetLength(0); i++)
         {
              Print("Filled amount is " + Sorders[i, 1].ToString());
              Print("Current state is " + Sorders[i, 2].ToString());
			
			if(Sorders[i, 2].ToString()=="Filled")
			{
					 Print("Do Something " )
			
			}
			
         }
    }

You actually need the atmStrategyId.

string[,] Sorders = GetAtmStrategyStopTargetOrderStatus("Stop1", atmStrategyId);

Thank You!

How do you know when to use "Quotation Marks"?

string[] entryOrder = GetAtmStrategyEntryOrderStatus("orderId");

If(GetAtmStrategyMarketPosition(atmStrategyId) == Cbi.MarketPosition.Flat)
Do Something

AtmStrategyChangeEntryOrder(0,price, orderId);

[NinjaTrader_RyanM1]

Use quotation marks when you're checking a literal string. Don't use quotation marks when you're checking a variable. For guidance on this specific to Atm strategy, please see the sample provided. If you're looking for help with an ATM method that is not included in the sample, check the help guide for an example on its usage.

**NT** GetAtmStrategyStopTargetStatus() method error: OrderName 'Stop1' does not exis

Hello,

I've run into the same issue receiving the GetAtmStrategyStopTargetStatus() method error. This existing thread helped but I am still running into an issue.

The problem -

It appears that the GetAtmStrategyStopTargetStatus() method is unable to locate the "Stop1" variable. Here is an excerpt from the OutPut window:

**NT** GetAtmStrategyStopTargetStatus() method error: OrderName 'Stop1' does not exist

Here is the applicable snippet

(in the variables section I have): private string Stop1 = string.Empty;


(in the OnBarsUpdate section I have):

string[,] orders = GetAtmStrategyStopTargetOrderStatus("Stop1", atmStrategyId);

// Check length to ensure that returned array holds order information
if (orders.Length > 0)
{
for (int i = 0; i < orders.GetLength(0); i++)
{
Print("Average fill price is " + orders[i, 0].ToString());
Print("Filled amount is " + orders[i, 1].ToString());
Print("Current state is " + orders[i, 2].ToString());
}
}

I'd appreciate any pointers you can give me.

Hello,

Thank you for providing the example, unfortunately this is exported as a compiled assembly.

Please export as just the .cs file or a uncompiled zip and I will be able to view the code to assist with this.

I look forward to being of further assistance.
