Start/Stop strategy event

[zer0balance]

Is there any way to know when start/stop strategy button is pressed from Strategy Tab of Control Center?

Hi zer0balance, do you mean if you can access / control this from NinjaScript? The starting / stopping of a strategy is reported in the Log...

[zer0balance]

I mean from NinjaScript code.

Hi zer0balance, unfortunately this is not possible.

zer0balance,

If the NinjaScript is running it is Started. What are you trying to accomplish? If any calculations or logic is processed you know the strategy is in a start mode. Stopping a strategy and starting it again is the same thing as just starting a new strategy.

Ok. Is there any way to catch when the stop button is pressed? I would like to free some resources when stop button is pressed.

When you press the Stop button the script is "done". You can use the Dispose method to free resources.
