Strategy Disabled Alert

[jlkramer16]

How can I receive an alert via email that a live strategy has been disabled? Alternatively, how can I receive an alert that the strategy's data feed has disconnected?

jlkramer16,
Thanks for your post.

You would not be able to use Share() inside State.Terminated, so I am not sure what logic would be required to accomplish this. If you want to do something within the context of a connection status change you can use OnConnectionStatusUpdate().

Please see the following link for more information: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...atusupdate.htm

Thank you. Is there a way to prevent a strategy from disabling despite it losing connection? Or at least make the time the disconnection lasts before disabling greater?

jlkramer16,

You could do that with the ConnectionLossHandling property set to KeepRunning

Anyway to avoid disabling strategies when an account disconnects? Not sure if this is the same situation as a data feed. What I am trying to solve here is IB's TWS daily restart disabling all my strategies.

jlkramer16,

In the context of the ConnectionLossHandling property, I would expect an account to be handled the same was as a regular data feed
