Help compiling "cancel an order not filled"

[ikerbar]

Good morning,
Ihave a problem, i dont know how to compile (write the exact word) in order to cancel my not filled order. The words in red give me compiling errors. Can someone give me an answer or any advice? Thx

My compilation for a short order:

{
// Condition set 1
if (ToTime(DateTime.Now) >= ToTime ( 10, 29, 57) && ToTime(DateTime.Now) <= ToTime ( 10, 29, 58))
{
EnterShortStopLimit( 1, GetCurrentBid() - 11 * TickSize, GetCurrentBid() - 5 * TickSize, "corto")
}
// Condition set 2 "if the price currentbid jump my limitprice and the order has not been filled, cancel the order"
if (ToTime(DateTime.Now) >= ToTime ( 10, 29, 59) && GetCurrentBid() < ShortStopLimit.LimitPrice && OrderStatus = not Working)
{
CancelOrder(ShortStopLimit);
}
}

Hi Ikerbar,

Thank you for posting.

You will need to create an IOrder to use the CancelOrder() effectively.

You will need to create the variable in the variables region.
Also, you will need to have null check in your condition and then submitting the order by defining the order for the IOrder Variable.

Below is a link on how to use the CancelOrder() from the online help guide.

Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

Need condition to cancel order

I have strategy. I need use cancel order but I want to cancel Order if price rises above High of bar which generated signal. I know how use CancelOrder with barNumberOfOrder.
Part of my code:

{myEntryOrder = EnterShortStop (0,true, 1, Math.Min (Open[0],Close[0]) -1 * TickSize, "Short");
price3=High[0];
else if (myEntryOrder != null && Close[0] > price3 )
{CancelOrder(myEntryOrder);}
As I understand Close[0] don't pertain. What I do need use in this example (instead last price) ? I use CalculateOnBarClose = true.
I would be very grateful.

Kotyk,

Thank you for your post.

You can continue to use Close[0] but you will need to change the logic as it will never be higher than the High price of a bar, which is what you are checking in the condition.

I would recommend changing the logic of the condition for the Close[0] against the High[0] price.

Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

I understand that logic is wrong. But I don't know how compare last price with the price when position was open.
I set flag when position open "High[0]=price3" and then compare last price with price3.

Kotyk,

Can you provide the code that sets the variable price3 and the full condition for it?

else if (myEntryOrder != null && Close[0] < price2)
{CancelOrder(myEntryOrder);}

Kotyk,

Thank you for the code.

It appears you are using unmanaged order entry for your script, however you do not have Unmanaged = true; in your initialize() method.

I recommend putting this in and testing your script again.

Let me know the results and if this helps

Thanks. I understand that it must be unmanaged order but I need rewrite whole script fot it. example instead of EnterLongStop SubmitOrder.

Kotyk,

Let's go back to the Price3 and Close[0].

You setup looks fine for setting the variable to the current High[0] price that you trying to get.

Are you not getting the condition to cancel the order called?

I don't understand. Price3 used for condition 2 for enter short positions. The code is the same.

Kotyk,

You mentioned earlier that you were having issues with your condition using the price three and weren't sure about using the Close[0] price to test. Is this still the case?

Yes. Ninja doesn't show mistake. But order cancelled on the next bar. liveUntilCancelled don't work.

Kotyk,

Can you please attach the whole code so I can test the script on my end?

You will find the strategy in (My) Documents -> NinjaTrader 7 -> bin -> custom -> Strategy

To attach, you will need to click Reply -> Go Advanced -> Click the Paperclip in the top toolbar.

If you prefer you can send the script to me at support[at]ninjatrader[dot]com with ATTN Cal in the subject and reference this post in the body.
