old existing playback order

[Trader_Mark]

Trying to test a strategy with Advanced Order Handling as shown here:

https://ninjatrader.com/support/helpGuides/nt8/en-us/?enterlongstopmarket.htm

Connected via Playback, there seems to be an order already filled that is keeping the strategy from doing anything because myEntryOrder is never null, even after it gets initialized as null.



I have tried the Reset DB option but this order under playback always shows up when I start the strategy.

Suggestions?

Thanks,
Mark

Hello TraderMark,

Thank you for your note.

At the following link, Under Advanced Order Handling, Transitioning order references from historical to live,

https://ninjatrader.com/support/helpGuides/nt8/en-us/?advanced_order_handling.htm

If you check if entryOrder is not null when transitioning to State.Realtime, and set it accordingly as shown in the example, does the issue resolve?

I look forward to your reply.

It helps because a order gets generated for the first entry but after that trade is stopped out, no more orders get generated.

Hello Trader_Mark,

I would suggest adding print statements to check whether and when your conditions are becoming true. I’ve provided a link to a youtube video which covers an example of using prints to understand behavior:

I’ve provided a link covering debugging which you may find helpful.

If you’d like to send a copy of the strategy you’re running, I can take a look and see if anything jumps out.
