Straegy Order Confirmation

[glenng]

I just developed my first NinjaScript strategy and when I loaded it I got a message that even though I had order confirmation on, orders created with a strategy would not be confrimed. This is a problem for me since I cannot filter out bad setups due to choppy, low volume days, etc.

Is there any way to require that these orders be confirmed? When I send an order from an outside system, I can do this. So I would like to confirm internally generated orders as well.

Unfortunately this is not possible.

Hello,

I'm very sorry to bring up this thread, but my question is very similar.

Essentially, I'm looking for the same thing as the author of this thread and I want to ask:

Will there be any slippage/delay rejection problems due to the Ninjascript communicating with external form, which, if pressed "OK", would send signal "OK" signal back to Ninjascript to confirm order placement? I'm talking about delay of no more than 10 seconds between pop-up and confirmation and I'll be using it for placing limit orders.

Thank you in advance.

Hello RobertasJ,
You are essentially blocking up the thread with the order confirmation dialog, and as such the OnBarUpdate events will get queued.

Hello Joydeep,

Thank you for your reply.

I'm aware that I'll block it, that's why I'll have it last on OnBarUpdate() list. Also, won't I be able to put this form into other thread so strategy keeps working while the form still waits for confirmation?

I don't mind blocking or putting it into other thread as long as I won't get timed out or rejected due to slippage.

Hello RobertasJ,
NinjaScript is essentially C# and you can do what you are trying to do however nothing we will officially support.
