Find Default Exchange

[KAylaM]

I am developing an indicator and need to know the exchange of the Master Instrument. How do I find out what the "default" exchange is?

Hello KAylaM,

Thanks for your inquiry.

The "Default" exchange uses SMART order routing. When you print out the exchanges of a MasterInstrument, you will see all of the exchanges that are mapped to the symbol.

Openly available documentaion on MasterInstrument.Exchanges can be found here: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help.../exchanges.htm

Please let me know if I can be of further assistance.

Hi Jim,

Thanks for replying. I have printed out the exchanges using the code here: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help.../exchanges.htm

I need to be able to find out what the default exchange in the list is.

for example, when I use this code
foreach(Exchange exchange in Bars.Instrument.MasterInstrument.Exchanges)
{
Print(exchange); // Default, Nasdaq, NYSE
}
for CAT I get Default and TSX as a result. I need to know which exchange the default is set to.

Thanks again,
Kayla

Hello Kayla,

The SMART order routing would be set by the provider and not by NinjaTrader directly.

I do not know of any means where this could be fetched through NinjaScript.

If there is anything else I can do to help, please let me know.
