On execution draw line

[cbadr]

Hi, i would like to draw a line once an order is triggered but not filled yet.
Here below the code but for some reasons doesnt work. Any idea why?

protected override void OnExecution(IExecution execution)
{
            lineLength = Math.Max(CurrentBar - barNumberOfOrder, 3);
            
            if (myLongEntry != null && myLongEntry == execution.Order
            && (execution.Order.OrderState == OrderState.Accepted))
            {
            DrawLine("EntryPending", false, lineLength, execution.Order.StopPrice, -20*lineLength, execution.Order.StopPrice, Color.White, DashStyle.Solid, 2);
            } 

            if (myLongEntry != null && myLongEntry == execution.Order
            && (execution.Order.OrderState == OrderState.Filled || execution.Order.OrderState == OrderState.PartFilled 
                || (execution.Order.OrderState == OrderState.Cancelled && execution.Order.Filled > 0)))
            {
                myLongEntry = null;        
                RemoveDrawObject("EntryPending");
            } 

}
//called by the Onbarupdate
private void LongEntry()
        {
            barNumberOfOrder = CurrentBar;
            myLongEntry = EnterLongStop(1,GetCurrentAsk()+ 1*TickSize, "LongEntry");
        }

Hello badr,

Thank you for the post.

I believe for this, you would also need to use the OnOrderUpdate override in addition to OnExecution. OnExecution will specifically be for executions on orders, for all other state changes OnOrderUpdate should be used.

I look forward to being of further assistance.

Thanks, so in that case how would i access the price value of the StopPrice as shown below to draw the line?

protected override void OnOrderUpdate(IOrder order)
{
            lineLength = Math.Max(CurrentBar - barNumberOfOrder, 3);
            
            if (myLongEntry != null && myLongEntry == Order
            && (Order.OrderState == OrderState.Accepted || Order.OrderState == OrderState.PendingSubmit))
            {
                DrawLine("EntryPending", false, lineLength, Order.StopPrice, -20*lineLength, Order.StopPrice, Color.White, DashStyle.Solid, 2);
            } 
    
            if (myShortEntry != null && myShortEntry == execution.Order
            && (Order.OrderState == OrderState.Accepted || Order.OrderState == OrderState.PendingSubmit))
            {
                DrawLine("EntryPending", false, lineLength, Order.StopPrice, -20*lineLength, Order.StopPrice, Color.White, DashStyle.Solid, 2);
            } 
 }

Hello badr,

Thank you for the reply.

It looks like you have removed the execution. and left Order in the syntax, this is basically what needs to be done but you need to make this lowercase to match the passed in order:

protected override void OnOrderUpdate([B]IOrder order[/B])

if (myLongEntry != null && myLongEntry == order
&& ([B]order[/B].OrderState == OrderState.Accepted || [B]order[/B].OrderState == OrderState.PendingSubmit))
{
	DrawLine("EntryPending", false, lineLength, [B]order[/B].StopPrice, -20*lineLength, order.StopPrice, Color.White, DashStyle.Solid, 2);
} 
	
if (myShortEntry != null && myShortEntry == order
&& (order.OrderState == OrderState.Accepted || order.OrderState == OrderState.PendingSubmit))
{
	DrawLine("EntryPending", false, lineLength, order.StopPrice, -20*lineLength, order.StopPrice, Color.White, DashStyle.Solid, 2);
}

I look forward to being of further assistance.
