Getting expiry of Contract

[GKonheiser]

How can I access the expiry information of a contact that is not the primary contract in a multi series script. For the primary contract I am using Instrument.Expiry.Month.

GKonheiser, nothing truly supported via NinjaScript in that area, however would try looking into Instruments[1].Expiry.Month

[GKonheiser]

would that be the same for Position

ie if I have a added FGBL with index location 3, can I use Position[3].MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Flat?

[NinjaTrader_Bertrand]

Correct, that would provided access to the Positons array for your script - this is also fully documented with an example here in our helpguide - http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h.../positions.htm

Hi Bertrand,

Thanks for your help on this this morning.

Is there anything I need to take into account when writing the OnOrderUpdate for the second contract

ie if (order.OrderState == OrderState.Cancelled && order.Filled == 0),

will there be any confusion with the primary contracts orders, ie what if both contracts get a fill at the same time?

Same for OnExecution when checking for executions what if there are two fills at the same time, what happens to execution.Order.OrderState ?

[NinjaTrader_Bertrand]

That would be dependent upon which IOrder object you set your OnOrderUpdate code to listen to, its per default called for all.

i.e. if (entryOrder != null && entryOrder == order) with this check you would only apply the following logic / check then for the entryOrder object.

OK, Sorry for my ignorance, but if I have a multi series script and I get two fills at the same time for two different contracts say two iOrders, longBund and longBobl , and I do a check for longBund == execution.order and longBobl == execution.order would they both come back as true, ie can execution.order be for more then one order?? does that make sense?

[NinjaTrader_Bertrand]

Both executions would trigger OnExecution() in your example, where you designate what code to run if execution.order's calling is tied to IOrder A or your IOrder B.
