command - remove orders

[tonynt]

Hello,

I couldn´t find which is the correct command to remove or delete limit-orders for the instrument from within a script. With "Position.Close()" the limitorders persist in orderstab (and on exchange I assume) and with ..Gui...FlattenEverything() it would work but all other trades and orders of other instruments would be flattened as well. This is not the intention.

Thank you
Tony

Hello,

For this you would need to call CancelOrder and provide the IOrder for the orders you are seeing.

There is a good example of this in the help guide: http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...ub=cancelorder

The order would need to be stored as an IOrder, then later when you need to cancel it just provide the stored IOrder to CancelOrder.

I look forward to being of further assistance .

Hello,

works fine, thank you. But I have another question pls: when searching for the syntax of Enterlong/shortLimit there is to find on support sites
EnterLongLimit(int quantity, double limitPrice, string signalName)


but in the sample it is
EnterLongLimit(0, true, 1, Low[0], "Long Entry");


What is "0" and "true" please?


Thank you
Tony

Hello,

The best reference for anything script related will be the helpguide page for that specific item, for this if we look at this page; http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...rlonglimit.htm

You can see all the ways this can be used listed near the top:

EnterLongLimit(double limitPrice)
EnterLongLimit(double limitPrice, string signalName)
EnterLongLimit(int quantity, double limitPrice)
EnterLongLimit(int quantity, double limitPrice, string signalName)
EnterLongLimit(int barsInProgressIndex, bool liveUntilCancelled, int quantity, double limitPrice, string signalName)

This says exactly how to use it, if you look at the example on the page it shows the second usage in the example or

EnterLongLimit(double limitPrice, string signalName)


For your question, this would most likely be the 5th usage or:

EnterLongLimit(int barsInProgressIndex, bool liveUntilCancelled, int quantity, double limitPrice, string signalName)

I look forward to being of further assistance.

Hello,

really sorry, I don´t know how this happened that I didnt see - maybe because you put the 5th sytntax out of order there in the list.

I thought I have now all working fine in my script but there occurs an issue when testing in the meantime: I can do the entries correctly with fxcm and it works correctly with 6E and 6B and CL. But with ES it doesn´t work How is this possible? Once my variable "hlPrice" is triggered the script doesnt send a limit for ES BUT it does for the other instruments

entryOrderkSa=EnterShortLimit(0,true,1,hlPrice+3*T ickSize, "kSa")

Thank you
Tony

Hello,

day of issues it seems. When I click on "edit" the window is empty, there´s nothing to edit where I wanted to substitute "out of order" with "below the order of the list" because of wrong translation.

Hello,

Are you referring to Edit on this page on the forum?

For the order submission, if the condition is happening but the order is not it may be getting ignored or possibly one of the order handling rules is taking effect.

Have you tried running this using TradeOrders = true ? http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...ub=traceorders

This would list any ignores or other order handling rules in the Tools -> Output window if this is the case.

Have you also looked in the log to see if the price the order is using is valid for the ES?

I look forward to being of further assistance.
