OnOrderUpdate in strategy from an order submitted via the DOM?

[endian675]

Is it possible to receive OnOrderUpdate() messages in a strategy if the order was originally submitted manually via the DOM?

Hello endian675,

While, it is not supported and I have not seen a way this may be done inside of a Strategy, you may want to take a look at the following indicator that emails trades inside of OnExecution() that may help you towards your goal.

Happy to be of further assistance.

Thank you. Could you forward it to the development team for their consideration?

Also, for others, it also seems possible to parse the log file to achieve the same result. Far from perfect but such is life.

Hello endian675,

It is on our feedback list to be able to manually placed trades inside of a NinjaScript file, and I will add your tally to the list.

Happy to be of further assistance.

Can you also request log file entries to have milliseconds in their timestamp. Thank you.
