NtDirect Order Status Problem

[Atomic]

I have an instance where two identical orders were sent and filled, only differing in the order name. One reports an order status using NTOrderStatus, and the other does not. What could cause this?

Hello Atomic,

It looks like you are submitting the orders very quickly. Could it be that you are submitting them and getting their status before NinjaTrader is filling them?

For instance are you waiting a second to let the orders fill before checking them?

Happy to be of further assistance.

No the order was submitted several hours ago and I still cannot get a status.

Here is the code I'm using to get the order status:

once clearprintlog;


if (barstatus(1) = 2) and lastbaronchart then begin
	print(formattime("hh:mm:ss tt",computerdatetime)," PortX2.1Buy38A11 ",NTORderStatus("PortX2.1Buy38A11"));
	print(formattime("hh:mm:ss tt",computerdatetime)," RCMAL-A-OBSE38 ",NTORderStatus("RCMAL-A-OBSE38"));
	print(formattime("hh:mm:ss tt",computerdatetime)," RCMAL-A-Lng138 ",NTORderStatus("RCMAL-A-Lng138"));
	print(formattime("hh:mm:ss tt",computerdatetime)," PORTX3.3Buy38A ",NTORderStatus("PORTX3.3Buy38A"));
	print(formattime("hh:mm:ss tt",computerdatetime)," PORTX3.3Sell38A1 ",NTORderStatus("PORTX3.3Sell38A1"));
	print(formattime("hh:mm:ss tt",computerdatetime)," PORTX3.8Buy38A11 ",NTORderStatus("PORTX3.8Buy38A11"));
end;

Here is the printout:
12:27:16 PM PortX2.1Buy38A11
12:27:16 PM RCMAL-A-OBSE38 Filled
12:27:16 PM RCMAL-A-Lng138 Cancelled
12:27:16 PM PORTX3.3Buy38A Working
12:27:16 PM PORTX3.3Sell38A1 Filled
12:27:16 PM PORTX3.8Buy38A11 Filled

Hello Atomic,

Thanks for the information.

This would be due to the Order was submitted with the name of "PORTX2.1BUY38A11" when you are trying to get the order status of "PortX2.1Buy38A11". If you change the order name to all Capitals to match the enter order name you should get the correct status back.

Let us know if we can be of further assistance.

Thanks. I had lost sight of the fact that these were case sensitive.
