Text on Execution

[WalterSkinner]

Hello,

I'm using the language reference to set up text messages via email that are meant to go out whenever the strategy executes a trade (in or out).

I set up two share services: Email and Text.

I've included this code into the strategy:

protected override void OnExecutionUpdate(Execution execution, string executionId, double price, int quantity, MarketPosition marketPosition, string orderId, DateTime time)
{
     Share("Text", orderId, new object[]{ "[email protected]", orderId });
}

My concern is that the example I used from the reference was for emails rather than email to text.

Is this how you would do it for email to text? If not, what would be different?

Edit:

Hello WalterSkinner,

Thanks for your post.

I will assume that you have used the test function on both the share services and have successfully tested both e-mail and e-mail to test. If you haven't please go back to Tools>Options>General and verify both work as expected.

The construct of the Share() would be the same for email or text.

I would suggest reducing the Share() down to just the name of the share service and the message you want to share. Based on your example of "
Share("Text", orderId, new object[]{ "[email protected]", orderId });" I will assume your email to text share service is called Text. An example would be Share("Text", "Your message here");

Please test with that example and build from there.
