GetAtmStrategyStopTargetOrderStatus

[tquinn]

According to the docs this method will return an empty array if it can't find the order.

I'm getting a method error instead:
**NT** GetAtmStrategyStopTargetStatus() method error: OrderName 'TARGET1' does not exist

Code snippet
if (atmStrategyId.Length > 0)
{
string[,] Orders = GetAtmStrategyStopTargetOrderStatus("TARGET1", atmStrategyId);
// Check length to ensure that returned array holds order information
if (Orders.GetLength(0) > 0)
{
for (int i = 0; i < Orders.GetLength(0); i++)
{
TargetStatus =Orders[i, 2].ToString();
Print("Target1 Current state is, " + TargetStatus);
}
}
}

tquinn, but this was for a not active anymore or not yet started ATM strategy id, correct?

[tquinn]

Correct, I've been looking at it wrong

[tquinn]

This is the situation I have occurring (rarely) but I need to recognize and have a routine to handle.

A) My strategy issues an ATM order which is filled (causing Targets and Stops to be working)
B) Prior to exiting this position My strategy issues another ATM order in the opposite direction which is also filled

This results in being flat the market, but having 4 orders working (2 OCO pairs) the results are unpredictable but usually bad.

I wanted to check for this by using GetAtmStrategyStopTargetOrderStatus() looking for two TARGET1 orders which are Working.

I can do this, but it fills my Output window with the method errors.

Is there a way to check for this condition without generating the errors?

How do you exit the position then, with the AtmStrategyClose()? If do this, then the orders should be cancelled and only your current working one be 'working', which would be accessible since they belong to the current active (non reset) ATM.
