Text Alert for Strategy Start, End and Summary

[mkaminski]

Can someone please point me in the right direction to learn how I can add an alert to a strategy that will simply text me when the strategy begins, ends and provide a summary of results, net P/L?

Thank you.

Hello mkaminski,

Thanks for your post.

To be able to issue e-mail/text from your platform you first have to create a share service. Please see the help guide section , "Managing Share Services" on this page: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...al_section.htm

From your strategy you can issue Alert(), SendMail() or Share(). Please see the help guide here: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...nd_sharing.htm

To text when connected or disconnected, you can use OnConnectionStatusUpdate(): https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...atusupdate.htm

For your strategy PNL, Please see the help guide here: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...?cumprofit.htm
