Order ID does not exist error when trying to cancel an order

[normster76]

We have an automated strategy running on Esignal placing orders on IB via Ninja Trader

We wish to cancel a stop and place a new one, however the stops that have been placed before are not being cancelled. I have included the log below:

Any ideas why this is not working?

Welcome to our forums here - where do you get the OrderID for the CancelOrder call from?

[normster76]

OK, I think I may be doing something stupid here. The code is:

dll.call("Command", "Place", sAccount, sContractName, sExit, nNumContracts, "STOP", 0, nS, "DAY", "", "", "", "");
stopId = dll.call("NewOrderId");

I get the feeling you are going to tell me to call stopId = dll.call("NewOrderId"); first, and pass that orderID to the Place command?

Indeed I have answered my own question. Assigning the order ID and passing it in the place command was the answer.

Thanks

Norman, correct sorry for my late reply.
