Account.CashValue

Hi,
Is it necessary/recommended to subscribe/unsubscribe to events or am I safe to call the AccountItems up in OnBarUpdate?
thanks,
David

Hello David,

Thank you for your post.

In a NinjaScript strategy, you could use the Account.Get() method to get the value of an AccoutnItem (AccountItem.CashValue) and this can be used inside of OnBarUpdate() without needing to add OnAccountItemUpdate() into your strategy:

For example, the following snippet would print the time of the bar and the AccountItem.Cash value in US Dollar currency:

Print(Time[0] + " CashValue: " + Account.Get(AccountItem.CashValue, Currency.UsDollar));

Please let us know if we may be of further assistance.
