How to determine when ProfitTarget is triggered?

Hello,

How can I determine when my SetProfitTarget is triggered to execute further logic?

Thank you!

Hello Dragon989,

Thank you for your note.

Thank you! How do you differentiate between different ProfitTargets? I noticed the order name was "Profit Target". How would I now which one was long or short or which of my Profit Targets was triggered as they have different entry signals.

Hello Dragon989,

In the case of multiple Profit Targets working you would want to filter by FromEntrySingal as well.

For example,

protected override void OnOrderUpdate(Order order, double limitPrice, double stopPrice, int quantity, int filled, double averageFillPrice, OrderState orderState, DateTime time, ErrorCode error, string nativeError)
{
if (order.Name == "Profit target" && order.FromEntrySignal =="LongA")
{
//Do Something.
}

if (order.Name == "Profit target" && order.FromEntrySignal =="LongB")
{
//Do Something.
}
}
