Question About Fetching Order Value

[GLFX005]

Hello Ninjatrader staff,

What is the most efficient way to get the market value (not quantity) of a resting order such as a Buy Limit and Print out this value?
When I use Print(S1.LimitPrice) I am getting this error in the Log tab "Error on calling 'OnBarUpdate' method on bar 5610: Object reference not set to an instance of an object".

Thank you in advance for your reply!

Hello GLFX005, thanks for writing in.

It looks like you have an order object reference that is null at the time you access the LimitPrice property. Check that the order is not null before accessing it, and make sure it's being set to an order before doing this as well.

S1 = ExitLongLimit(...);

if(S1 != null)
{
Print(S1.LimitPrice);
}

Alternatively, you can capture the limit price within the OnOrderUpdate method once it's submitted (in the working or accepted state):

Another alternative would be looping through the Account.Orders collection:

Please let me know if you have any questions on this material.
