Close unmanaged order

[bosajin]

Hi,

How can I close an Unmanaged order when status is Filled or PartFilled and cancel it when status is Working or Submitted?

Hello bosajin,

Thank you for your post.

To close an order when using the Unmanaged approach when the order status is Filled or PartFilled, you could check if order.OrderState == OrderState.Filled || order.OrderState == OrderState.PartFilled in OnOrderUpdate followed by calling SubmitOrderUnmanaged to place an order opposite of the entry order. For example, if we have a buy market entry order, we would use SubmitOrderUnmanaged to submit a sell market order to close out of our long position.

You could cancel an order when the status is Working or Submitted by first checking if the order state is working or filled in OnOrderUpdate. To do this you would check if order.OrderState == OrderState.Working || order.OrderState == Order.State.Submitted followed by calling CancelOrder() to cancel the order.

Hi Brandon,

Would you please explain how I can get Realized and UnRealized profit of each Unmanaged order.

Hello bosajin,

Thank you for your note.

You would get the Realized PnL and Unrealized PnL from the Account class by calling <Account>.Get(AccountItem.RealizedProfitLoss, Currency.UsDollar) and <Account>.Get(AccountItem.UnrealizedProfitLoss, Currency.UsDollar).

Please see the attached example script which demonstrates how this could be accomplished.
