internal order handling rule managed approach

[hansg1]

Hello,
I do not understand that rule. I have a long position opened and want to change the setstoploss order so then I get this error. Maybe there is a missunderstanding from my side ?
The setstopplos is initial set in State.Configure and it will be changed in OnBarUpdate ? What to do to find the real reason for that?
thx
regards

Hello hansg1,

Thank you for your post.

In the image you shared, 'active' means that the order is not filled yet or canceled.

As stated in the Tips section of the SetStopLoss help guide documentation, you may call the SetStopLoss() method from within the strategy OnBarUpdate() method should you wish to dynamically change the stop loss price while in an open position.

Should you call this method to dynamically change the stop loss price in the strategy OnBarUpdate() method, you should always reset the stop loss price / offset value when your strategy is flat otherwise, the last price/offset value set will be used to generate your stop loss order on your next open position

See the example script in the help guide documentation below for an example of modifying the price of stop loss and profit target orders.

Hi Brandon,
thx for your reply
could you have a look please in the grid?
I do not understand what happens before the event

Strategy 'EMa101b1/226153922': An Set() method to submit an exit order at '09.04.2021 03:21:04' has been ignored. Please search on the term 'Internal Order Handling Rules' in the Help Guide for detailed explanation.

the execution happens in the chart above , but why is the "ignored" after that. As I said the logic is working in most cases. So it is not a systematical error.
There are some orders bevore "ignored".Could you please explain? Thx
regards

Hello hansg1,

Thank you for your note.

This error message means that something in your script is violating one of the Set() method Internal Order Handling rules located in the Managed Approach help guide page.

You would need to debug your script and compare your strategy's logic to the Internal Order Handling rules to determine where in your script the error is occurring.
