Wait for order1 to fill before submitting order2

[dawidtokyo]

Hi guys,

I'm have an strategy that puts 3 orders few ticks away from each other. I was wondering how could make the order number 2 wait for the order 1 to fill before submitting...
My order list looks like that

// Buy	1			
entryBuyOrder = SubmitOrder(0, OrderAction.Buy, OrderType.Limit, buy_qnt1, offsetBase(1) - orderTypeSign * this.buy_OFFSET1 * TickSize, 0, "Long Limit1_" + Instrument.Id, "Long Limit1");
						
								
// Buy	2							
entryBuyOrder1 = SubmitOrder(0, OrderAction.Buy, OrderType.Limit, buy_qnt2, offsetBase(1) - orderTypeSign * this.buy_OFFSET2 * TickSize, 0, "Long Limit2_" + Instrument.Id, "Long Limit2");
						
// Buy	3 
entryBuyOrder2 = SubmitOrder(0, OrderAction.Buy, OrderType.Limit, buy_qnt3, offsetBase(1) - orderTypeSign * this.buy_OFFSET3 * TickSize, 0, "Long Limit3_" + Instrument.Id, "Long Limit3");

Thanks very much in advance!

If your strategy does bar updates every tick, then you could just check for a position size/state every tick, but that's not terribly elegant. If you use IOrder objects, you could check specifically when the first order was executed in the OnExecution() method.

coolmoss i'm new to this to this (c#)... Could you explain more?
Basically i just want my orders to wait for previous order to fill before the next one will be submitted. I need that to protect me from Daily Raw Messaging Tier on CME.

There are a number of IOrder properties you can reference to have the strategy only take action when that order is in a certain state.

We don't have an exact example of what you're trying to do, but I'm including a few reference samples which use IOrders:
