Getting value when using SetStopLoss()

[TAJTrades]

How can I retrieve the value/price when using SetStopLoss?

// Check if Stop has Not been moved to breakevven
if(Math.Abs(Position.AveragePrice - SetStopLoss.Value) > TickSize)
{
// Move Stop to Breakeven
}

Hello TAJTrades,

With the Set methods there are two ways to do that. The first is if you are setting a specific price, in that case you should have a variable with the price that can be referenced. The other way is to use OnOrderUpdate to find the order and then get its price. We have a sample that shows how to find a stop loss in the following page, the same concept would apply with your script as you would need to locate the order and save it to a variable. Later you could reference that variable in your condition in place of "SetStopLoss.Value".

You don't need the lists from this sample, mainly just the part where it finds the order by name: if (order.Name == "Stop loss")

You can make a variable with the order:

private Order myStop;

that would get assigned from OnOrderUpdate:

if (order.Name == "Stop loss")
{
    myStop = order;
}

Then you can use the myStop.StopPrice to get its stop price. https://ninjatrader.com/support/help.../nt8/order.htm




I look forward to being of further assistance.

Thanks Jesse.

Am doing some speed testing for a scalping system where speed is the priority. I have already done the variable with price for tracking you suggested and also a bool flag IsPriceSetToBreakeven.

I overlooked the OnOrderUpdate method for Managed Approach so will give that try and see which is fastest..
