Order Stuck on Initialized

[Vikuno1]

Hello,

I am trying to execute an ATM strategy via an indicator (Have done plenty of times before) but for some reason when I submit the order it just gets stuck on "Initialized"

I have recreated a simple version of what I am writing and attaching below. I am also attaching my log and trace files as well but didn't see anything odd in those either.

Let me know what I am doing wrong

Thanks!

Hello Vikuno1,

Thank you for your post.

From the Help Guide on StartAtmStrategy():

"Critical: The "name" argument on the CreateOrder() method MUST be named "Entry" for the ATM Strategy to be started successfully."

Try using "Entry" for the name argument in your CreateOrder() call. Are you still seeing the same behavior?

That did it! Thanks so much!

Another quick question. So when you submit a sell stopmarket order above market price it rejects.

If I place it above price from the beginning, meaning the order doesn't exist and I am first submitting it, it rejects fine and I can catch it in the code and execute whatever logic I want.

But if the order already exists and it is a change being submitted it sends an error and it looks like it rejects but if you look at the log or print what comes out of the OnOrderUpdate function there is no rejection. Is there a work around for this other than checking the price of the submitted change? I am afraid if I have it check the price before then there could be a scenario where it actually goes through but still executes logic like it was on the wrong side of price

Let me know!

Thanks
