Changing order type without changing IOrder name

[guillembm]

HI,

If I have a limit order assigned to an IOrder name in a bar like:

MyOrder = ExitLongLimit();

And I want to switch to a market order the next bar without changing the IOrder name like:

MyOrder = ExitLong();

I have to Cancel previously the order: CancelOrder(MyOrder)

or I can do it directly?

guillembm,

You would need to CancelOrder on the Limit and place a new order as Market. It would not be possible to convert an order directly from limit to market.

Please let me know if you have additional questions.
