    How to tell when ATM strategy is closed

    I have a strategy written to place orders using the ATMStrategyCreate() method. I want to place another order as soon at that position closes. How do I check on each tick to know when the position has terminated and I can place a new ATMStrategyCreate() again?

    Thanks!

    Bryan, you would see the ATM market position update to reflect the position is flat - you will need to see at least one OnBarUpdate() event though as this would guarantee the position update had been processed internally.

      OK, that's what I thought too. That would work fine when you use OrderType.Market because you know that once the order is placed, it is filled. But I am using OrderType.Limit, so I don't know when or if that order has been filled. I think I will have to just use a combination of a few internal variables to track the status of the order from when it's placed to when it's filled, and then track the MarketPosition from there to track when the position becomes flat again.

      Thanks!
