Can I intercept Ninja errors?

[boaza]

Is it possible to intercept Ninja errors (resulting in an error pop-up) inside the strategy?

Like which error?

Unable to change order ,'xxxx': Order was not in a state that can be modified

Use a try ... catch block around your order, trapping the specific exception (look in the log for details), or just the general exception. Remember to use a finally block to handle what you want to do to cleanup/react after you trap the exception.

You may also have to turn off standard realtimeerrorhandling.

Kindly take the dire warnings seriously. You can cause tremendous harm to your account, even possibly complete accounticide (if we may be allowed to coin our own words).

Hello boaza,

Thank you for your post.

For information on Try Catch please visit the following link: http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/f...ead.php?t=9825

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks koganam.

Are you sure this kind of error results in an exception?
If yes - its clear about the try-catch. If not - will I get a call to OnOrderUpdate() with OrderStatus == Error?

It is more a matter of general principle rather than me being certain. Almost any error that throws up a dialog box in .NET does it by using exceptions. Actually it seems to be the only valid way to gracefully handle errors in .NET.

The only way to know if the error gets reflected in any other event handler is to look in the log. You may have to enable TraceOrders.
