Same Signal Name in Different Strategy

[matrixxx]

Dear Support,


Question 1:

Should I use the different signal name in different strategy that running on the same broker account?

Case 1, different strategy, same instrument
Case 2, same strategy, different instrument


Sample::

Strategy1:
EnterLong("OpenLong");
ExitLong("CloseLong");

Strategy2:
EnterLong("OpenLong");
ExitLong("CloseLong");

================================================== =======

Question 2:

Can the strategy know the order status from another strategy?

Sample::

Strategy1:
EnterLong("OpenLong");


Strategy2:
Get order status "OpenLong" from Strategy1

Hello matrixxx,

Thanks for your post.

The strategy order names will have no impact on the other strategies running in either case, however, you may want to use different names to help you see the orders as they relate to the strategy when applied to the same instrument when reviewing the orders on the chart for example.

To partially answer question 1 and answer question 2, strategies do not know of any other strategy and will run independently and will continue submitting orders regardless of account position because strategies maintain their own strategy position. This mainly applies to running different strategies on the same instrument. You may want to review the helpguide here: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help..._account_p.htm
