GetAtm - tradecounter

[tonynt]

Hello,

I´m using the tradecounter as in your SampleTradeLimiter. This works fine with NT-script-strats. Can I use this for GetAtmStrategy also somehow? I have not idea how I could do "tradeCounter++;" with ATM-strat. Maybe only to add like

{tradeCounter++;
atmStrategyId = GetAtmStrategyUniqueId();
orderId = GetAtmStrategyUniqueId();
AtmStrategyCreate(Cbi.OrderAction................. ..}

Will this be accepted by NTscript and work without problems?

Thanks
Tony

Tony, you should be able to use the same concept, as it's just a simple script counter executing once a condition in your script triggers it, so this could be your entry condition in the ATM script, or if you're filled for the complete position. Thinking about it, you should also be able to increment when you do the reset of strategy id / order id when flat again.

Bertrand,

thank you for your reply. In this concern one question more please: int the sampleatmstragey there is used

.......................StrategyMarketPosition(atmS trategyId) == Cbi.MarketPosition.Flat)

and also

........................StrategyMarketPosition(atm StrategyId) != MarketPosition.Flat)

What is the difference between "Cbi.MarketPosition.Fla"t and "MarketPosition.Flat"?

Thanks
Tony
