Plotting Stop Adjustments

[stoner]

Is there a way to render the stop level's on a Strategy Analyzer chart? Meaning if I call SetParabolicStop() or SetTrailStop() linked to an order and the order is filled while back testing then I want to see a dot/line on the chart that reflects where the stop was set for each bar while holding the position.

Maybe there's a OnStopChange event or similar I can hook into?

Hello stoner,

You can set a drawing object like a line to the price of an order.StopPrice from OnOrderUpdate().

Here's what I came up with if anyone's interested...

private long stopCounter = 0;

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 == "Parabolic stop")
   {
      Draw.Diamond(this, "sc" + (stopCounter++), false, 0, order.StopPrice, Brushes.Aqua);
   }
}

Hello stoner,

Use prints and TraceOrders to understand behavior.
