Performance Object Entry & Exit Times

[dbw451]

I'm trying to write trade performance information to a text file from a Strategy. I have no problem getting the performance information through the Performance object, but I would also like to include the Entry and Exit times of each trade like displayed in the Strategy Analyzer Trades window.

My question is what's the best way to obtain the trade entry and exit times associated with each set of Performance object values?

Thanks,

Use the Trade object class which gives you the IExecution for the entry and exits which ultimately allows you to access the times for each.

Ok thanks Josh. That's exactly what I was using but I couldn't figure out how to do the indexing into the trade class so that it corresponds to each set of performance values. I guess I'll keep at it trial and error until I figure it out.

Please take a look at the TradeCollection class.

I figured out my issue; I was using the trade count as an index rather than count - 1:

This works:

Performance.AllTrades[Performance.AllTrades.Count-1].Entry.Time
