Question about changing orders from an AddOn

[NichUK]

Hello,

I'm writing an addon which needs to be able to update orders on occasion.

I believed that the following code would be sufficient:

var account = GetMyAccount();
var order = GetMyOrder();
order.Quantity = newOrderQuantity;

if (order.Quantity == 0)
{
account.Cancel(new Order[] { order });
}
else
{
account.Change(new Order[] { order });
}

Unfortunately this doesn't seem to be working. It runs through without an error, but the order quantity is not updated,

Is there anything else I should be doing?

Thanks!

Nich

Hello NichUK,

Thank you for your note.

LimitPriceChanged, StopPriceChanged, and QuantityChanged are the correct properties to set for a change to price or quantity.

So:

order.QuantityChanged = newOrderQuantity;

Should properly change the order quantity for you.

Please let us know if we may be of further assistance to you.

Thanks Kate! I shall try that out first thing tomorrow.
