Unable to load ATM strategy template from file 'C:\Users\

Hello,

I incorporated an ATM into my strategy , it was working great placing trades with the correct ATM name , then I did a restart on NT8 now I keep getting the message down below. I have deleted all the ATM's and created a new one and I still see the same issue. Any ideas? I can't find much on this subject.

A bit more info, this seems to only be impacting longs , shorts work fine. This kind of implies my code is wrong but its exactly the same as the short minus the order action is a buy. The if and else if are true for the long and shot , I can see with print messages we are going in there , but only the logs get the error reading the ATM in the templates directory.

if (orderId.Length == 0 && atmStrategyId.Length == 0 && *** long conditions
{

isAtmStrategyCreated = false; // reset atm strategy created check to false
atmStrategyId = GetAtmStrategyUniqueId();
orderId = GetAtmStrategyUniqueId();
AtmStrategyCreate(OrderAction.Buy, OrderType.Market, 0, 0, TimeInForce.Day, orderId, "Defualt", atmStrategyId, (atmCallbackErrorCode, atmCallBackId) => {
//check that the atm strategy create did not result in error, and that the requested atm strategy matches the id in callback
if (atmCallbackErrorCode == ErrorCode.NoError && atmCallBackId == atmStrategyId)
isAtmStrategyCreated = true;
});


}
else if (orderId.Length == 0 && atmStrategyId.Length == 0 && *** short conditions
{

isAtmStrategyCreated = false; // reset atm strategy created check to false
atmStrategyId = GetAtmStrategyUniqueId();
orderId = GetAtmStrategyUniqueId();
AtmStrategyCreate(OrderAction.SellShort, OrderType.Market, 0, 0, TimeInForce.Day, orderId, "Default", atmStrategyId, (atmCallbackErrorCode, atmCallBackId) => {
//check that the atm strategy create did not result in error, and that the requested atm strategy matches the id in callback
if (atmCallbackErrorCode == ErrorCode.NoError && atmCallBackId == atmStrategyId)
isAtmStrategyCreated = true;
});
}
if (!isAtmStrategyCreated)
return;

// Check for a pending entry order
if (orderId.Length > 0)
{
string[] status = GetAtmStrategyEntryOrderStatus(orderId);

// If the status call can't find the order specified, the return array length will be zero otherwise it will hold elements
if (status.GetLength(0) > 0)
{
// Print out some information about the order to the output window
Print("The entry order average fill price is: " + status[0]);
Print("The entry order filled amount is: " + status[1]);
Print("The entry order order state is: " + status[2]);

// If the order state is terminal, reset the order id value
if (status[2] == "Filled" || status[2] == "Cancelled" || status[2] == "Rejected")
orderId = string.Empty;
}

Hello jeffom,

I am seeing Default is spelled wrong.
