ATI "Strategies" Function Always Returns Empty String

[LeeMellinger]

I'm trying to get a list of the ATM Strategies using the "Strategies" ATI method. I'm getting an empty string in all cases. I've tried "SIM101" and a connected, live Interactive Brokers account.

1) Here's the code. Fairly straightforward. Other functions work fine and Connected returns 0:

client = new Client();
string strategyList = client.Strategies("SIM101");

2) ATM Strategies are not account specific so why is an account required for this function?

Thanks!

LeeMellinger,

I am a little confused here. Are you using the ATI interface with ATM strategies, or is this specifically a ATM strategies question?

ATM stands for "Advanced trade managment" and its used to manage your order's stop losses and take profits.

ATI is the "Automated trading interface" and is used to get signals from other platforms auto-trading capabilities.

I'm using the ATI to submit orders to NT. The ATI allows ATM strategies to be attached to ATI orders. However, I think I've answered my question. The Strategies function probably only returns active ATM strategies associated with orders submitted via the ATI.

Hi Lee, same outcome with quering "Sim101" ? I think with the call you have setup it would simply not find the account in NT...

I just pulled it directly out of the database: SELECT DISTINCT Name FROM NT_Strategy WHERE Category=2

Work well. Thanks.
