Account method and Flatten method

[sushilake]

Do you possibly have a sample file that I can learn the syntax for "Account" and "Flatten" methods from?

Hello sushilake,

Welcome to the NinjaTrader forums!

While I can provide an example that places orders through an account, this does not use <Account>.Flatten(instruments[]).

The Addon Framework Basic does demonstrate <Account>.Flatten.

Are you finding the code example in the help guide is not working correctly or is inadequate?

Greeting Chelsea
I am kind of new to this. I have written and understand much of it. My problem is that I have never gotten a += subscription understanding. It is just that I do not know how to enter a subscription into my indicator. Your examples are understandable to me but.. I need to get one small feature working from a subscription in my code file and then I will be able to quickly understand the rest. I would like to be able to write a new indicator with just the necessary code to get one feature of one subscription working. Then I will be able to understand how to integrate it into my indicators.

Hello sushilake,

An example of adding an event handler method to the <Account>.OrderUpdate event in an indicator.
