GetAtmStrategyStopTargetOrderStatus

[mlarocco]

Hi,
I am trying to use "GetAtmStrategyStopTargetOrderStatus" to return the price I have my fixed (initial)stop order at in the ATM strategy and haven't had any success. What I am trying to do is, compare the price the fixed stop is at to the value of the ParabolicSAR value and when the ParabolicSAR value falls below the stop price in a short position, have the stop follow the ParabolicSAR value down. I am able to have the stop follow the ParabolicSAR value down, I just can't get the initial comparison to work. I hope this is making sense!

Thanks

Hello mlarocco,

When and how are you calling the "GetAtmStrategyStopTargetOrderStatus"?

Also, are you checking to make sure that your entry order is filled?

I wasn't checking if the order was filled. I had tried several different attempts including the code from the doc's (see below). I ran into trouble when trying to use a "<" or ">"against the ParabolicSAR value, which is what I ultimately want to do.


protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{
string[,] orders = GetAtmStrategyStopTargetOrderStatus("TARGET1", "idValue");

// Check length to ensure that returned array holds order information
if (orders.Length > 0)
{
for (int i = 0; i < orders.GetLength(0); i++)
{
Print("Average fill price is " + orders[i, 0].ToString());
Print("Filled amount is " + orders[i, 1].ToString());
Print("Current state is " + orders[i, 2].ToString());
}
}
}

I found a different way to get the results I wanted. Thanks for your help
