Hi cincai, I do it this way:

protected override void OnExecutionUpdate()
{    
     if (execution.Order.OrderState != OrderState.PartFilled)
       {          
           MakeScreenshot(); //your own code here
       }
}

Your way is only applied in strategy.

For indicators or add-ons try like this:

protected override void OnStateChange()
{
 if (State == State.DataLoaded)
 {
   //Find our account
   lock (Account.All)
   {
      account = Account.All.FirstOrDefault(a => a.Name == "Sim101");
   }
   //Subscribe to account item and order updates
   if (account != null)
   {
      account.ExecutionUpdate += OnExecutionUpdate;
   }
 }
 if (State == State.Terminated)
 {
     //Make sure to unsubscribe to the account item subscription
     if (account != null)
    {
     account.ExecutionUpdate -= OnExecutionUpdate;
     account = null;
    }
  }
}

private void OnExecutionUpdate(object sender, ExecutionEventArgs e)
{
   if (e.Execution.Order.OrderState != OrderState.PartFilled)
   {
      MakeScreenshot(); //your own code here
   }
}

I made an indicator that takes a screenshot with every trade or with the push of a button.If you are interested, you can send me a PM. Don't worry the indicator is free
