CancelOrder problems

[elechim]

Hi!

I'm programming a scalping strategy. I place an entry order at the first tick of the bar and live at the same bar. To avoid losses I want cancel the order if isn't entry in the market after the range bar reached 3 ticks (see line 92 - 93 in the attached file).
Unfortunately that don't work! The order stay alive!

Can anyone help me find the reason?

Thanks,

Michele

Hello elechim,
If you use the below overload to submit the limit order then can you cancel the order

EnterLongLimit(int barsInProgressIndex, bool liveUntilCancelled, int quantity, double limitPrice, string signalName)

http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/helpGuides/nt7/index.html?enterlonglimit.htm

change the code as per line 79 to:

myEntryOrderLONG = EnterLongLimit(0, true, noContratti, Close[1]-1*TickSize, ENTRYtxt);

Please let me know if I can assist you any further.
