how to create stop loss order in addon?

[trader252]

Hi,
I am using the following to create an order in my addon:
Order sellOrder = account.CreateOrder(pos.Instrument, OrderAction.Sell, OrderType.Market, OrderEntry.Manual, TimeInForce.Day, 1, 0, 0, null, "SellOrder", Core.Globals.MaxDate, null);

How can I create a stop market order 10 ticks away from above order?

I was trying this but I'm not sure how to get the price?

Order stopOrder = account.CreateOrder(pos.Instrument, OrderAction.BuyToCover, OrderType.StopMarket, OrderEntry.Manual, TimeInForce.Day, 1, ???, 0, null, "StopOrder", Core.Globals.MaxDate, null);

Hello trader252,

To get the orders price you would need to watch for that order to fill and then get its price from the execution. You can watch the order events by using the account variable and its ExecutonUpdate event.

You could also store the current price at the time of submission to a variable however that would not be accurate to the orders actual fill price.

You can find a sample of subscribing to the accounts events in the following page: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...ount_class.htm

I look forward to being of further assistance.
