Strategy Disconnect Email

[GreenTrade]

I am testing a strategy on the SIM account before taking it live. I have NT running on a server 24hrs. The strategy is setup and tested to enter a trade and at the same time email a trade confirmation to myself.

Is it possible to (and if so how) setup an email alerting me to a disconnection from the data provider if the disconnection last a certain amount of time? I do not necessarily want a message sent if it is able to reconnect itself.

Would this need to be setup as an indicator with CalculateOnBarClose = false; so it checks in real time instead of adding it to my strategy that waits to the bar close?

Thanks!

Hello GreenTrade,
Thanks for your post.

Yes it is possible to write custom codes alerting you via email if you are disconnected for more than a certain period. You can basically use the OnConnectionStatus event for this purpose. You can find more on the same from here

We cannot help you beyond this as this is beyond our support level, though you might consider consulting any of our NinjaScript consultants http://www.ninjatrader.com/partners#...pt-Consultants

Please do let me know if I can be of any further assistance.

Regards,
Joydeep.
