Can ninjatrader give alerts when a position is to be executed?

[comfysofa]

Hi, I am using the strategy in real time on a demo account of Ninjatrader.

I have left my computer on throughout so that it can test the strategy, but although there are live trades, the email is not sent. Could you help me out in this? Very desperately need it done :/

Really thanks in advance.

First look in your log for any error messages. If you do not see any, or they are unintelligible, use try/catch blocks to trap the full exception.

I'm not sure , but the DEMO account probably is blocking.

You should go live.

Is this in a strategy?

You could bypass NT (hopefully) by google "C# how to email"

that might give you this code:


/*
MailMessage mail = new MailMessage();
mail.To.Add("sledge@ninjatraderz.com");
mail.From = new MailAddress ("From:Someone"); //txtFrom.Text;
mail.Subject = "Subject:We sold";//txtSubject.Text;
mail.Body = "Body:" + Close[0]; //txtBody.Text;
SmtpClient smtp = new SmtpClient("smtp.somewhere.net");
smtp.Send(mail);
*/

use with caution, else you might get black listed by your isp. (ie, flooding the server with 1,000 emails every tick)
