Missing methods/properties from NT7 to NT8

[kiss987]

Hello

I'm trying to transfer my code from NT7 to NT8. There were some methods/properties I couldn't find a replacement for despite looking on the article at the bottom:

1. Bars.MarketData
2. Provider.Replay

Thanks

Hello kiss987,

These items are not documented for NinjaTrader 7.

If you are trying to get the playback time of the playback connection in NT8, you can find this with:

Cbi.Connection.PlaybackConnection.Now

If you are trying to find the connection name:

protected override void OnConnectionStatusUpdate(ConnectionStatusEventArgs connectionStatusUpdate)
{
  if (connectionStatusUpdate.Connection.Options.Name == "Playback Connection")
  {
  Print("connected to Playback");
  }
}

Thanki you for your reply.

I'm looking for the following:
1. Bars.MarketData.Connection.Now
2. Order.Error

Hello kiss987,

I may not be understanding what you are looking for with Bars.MarketData.Connection.Now.

This code is for NinjaTrader 7 and provides the time of the Market Replay.

Was the Cbi.Connection.PlaybackConnection.Now I have suggested insufficient to print the playback time?


With the Order.Error, are you submitting orders to an account with CreateOrder()?
If so, attach an event handler method to the <Account>.OrderUpdate event. The returned OrderEventArgs object will have a .Error property.

private void Account_OrderUpdate(object sender, OrderEventArgs e)
{
	Print(e.Error.ToString());
}
