interesting observation with bid/ask

[WHICKED]

when creating a indicator that utilizes OnMarketData(MarketDataEventArgs marketDataUpdate) method.

Printing out the bid or ask sometimes produces a negative value X10 to the 300 value.

example:
2023-07-14 12:24:57:741|1|16|ASK: -1.79769313486232E+308
2023-07-14 12:24:57:741|1|16|BID:-1.79769313486232E+308
2023-07-14 12:24:57:808|1|16|ASK: -1.79769313486232E+308
2023-07-14 12:24:57:808|1|16|BID:-1.79769313486232E+308
2023-07-14 12:24:57:906|1|16|ASK: -1.79769313486232E+308
2023-07-14 12:24:57:906|1|16|BID:-1.79769313486232E+308
2023-07-14 12:24:57:933|1|16|ASK: -1.79769313486232E+308
2023-07-14 12:24:57:933|1|16|BID:-1.79769313486232E+308

Thats a bit not possible, but yet that comes directly from your platform. Am I to code around that? or are you actually going to fix it?

Hello WHICKED,

I am not able to reproduce while connected to Kinetick or NinjaTrader Brokerage using the ES 09-23 with the sample code from the help guide.

Below is a link to a video of the test.

How often is this occurring?

What steps do I need to take to reproduce?

[WHICKED]

Try on NQ - put it on a 10 second chart or something along those lines.


code being used:

protected override void OnMarketData(MarketDataEventArgs md)
            if (md.Ask == null || md.Bid == null)
                return;
            double a=md.Ask;
            if(a<0)
                Log("ASK:" + a.ToString(), LogLevel.Information);
            double b=md.Bid;
            if(b<0)
                Log("BID:" + b.ToString(), LogLevel.Information);
}​

Hello WHICKED,

I've tested with NQ 09-23 using the code from the help guide and am not reproducing.

Use Print() for debugging (or write to a separate text file with StreamReader), use Log() to write information to be used by NinjaTrader Technicians in the log file.

To confirm, you are not able to reproduce using the code from the help guide?

You are connected to NinjaTrader Brokerage? (either live or simulation)

think i got it. that value is the max value of a double converted to string.
