EnterLongLimit(GetCurrentAsk);

[Trader.Jon]

Specifically, when I try this I dont get filled, and I understand it as getting the next ASK price, which should happen on the open of the next bar or close to it ::

iOrderL1 = EnterLongLimit(0, false, iQuantity1, (GetCurrentAsk(0)), sENTRY1L);

AND I guess I dont understand the logic: should I use

iOrderL1 = EnterLong(0, false, iQuantity1,  (GetCurrentAsk(0)), sENTRY1L);

but I am guessing that will revert to a market order, which may have significant slippage.

Do I need to access OnMarketData somehow to assure fills?

Hi Jon,

What environment are you using this in?
Real time or historical?
Sim or live account?

Ryan,

Realtime SIM ... not going live until I figure this out ... MBTrading data only == no other data feed for taking the trade .. NT7R1 with multibroker

There's a high likelihood for a fill but you're using limit orders so no guarantee until trading passes through the limit price.

If you want to evaluate fill chance for this order type for simulator, just pull up ChartTrader and click Buy Ask button a few times.

If you need to be filled, then yes, submitting a market order is the way to go.
