Seconds since last trade

[caliph]

Does anybody have a hint for me how to calculate the seconds since the last entry or exit?
I cannot figure out the trade object regarding this info.


My goal is to generate a x second trade timeout since the last entry or exit (both would work for me).

Any help is appreciated.
Best regards,
Stefan

Hi Stefan,

For the most accurate way to get this, you could capture the execution time property using the IOrder properties, and then create a TimeSpan variable using this time and your computer clock.

For reference on using these advanced handlers and IOrders, please see the following link, and the example below:

#region Variables
private IOrder entryOrder;
#endregion

protected override void OnExecution(IExecution execution)
{
	if (entryOrder != null && entryOrder == execution.Order && execution.Order.OrderState == OrderState.Filled)
	{
	TimeSpan myTimeSpan = DateTime.Now - execution.Time;	
	}
}
