OnExecution syntax

[kenb2004]

Can you please give me an example of the proper syntax using the OnExecution properties: MarketPosition and Price?
Thanks

Hello kenb2004,
Please refer to these sample codes which implements the OnExecution event and the MarketPosition

By price if you mean the last traded price then please refer to our help guide which further discusses it.

Please let me know if I can assist you any further.

I'm sorry Joydeep, but not one of the 3 samples you pointed me to demonstrate the proper syntax using the properties: MarketPosition and Price in the OnExecution() method.

These are properties listed in NinjaTrader User guide, but I have no way of knowing how they are to be used without some sort of example.

Thanks

Maybe this will help?

No, Joydeep, this does not help. These are properties listed in NinjaTrader User guide that I just mentioned and there are no examples of how to use them. The properties MarketPosition and Price, as used in OnExecution().

All I'm looking for is any example syntax for these 2 properties.

Thanks

Example:

if (execution.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Long)
Print(execution.Price.ToString());

Thanks

How about Price?

Hello kenb2004,
Can you describe a bit more about your exact requirement. Are you looking for the description for IExecution interface as Radical pointed out or is it something different


@ Radical - Thanks for your input.

Thanks

How about Price?

That example showed how to use the Price property.

[NinjaTrader_Joydeep]

Hello kenb2004,
To find out the price you can use the below codes

double exPrice = execution.Price;

To get the price of the order

execution.Order.LimitPrice;
execution.Order.StopPrice;

[kenb2004]

Sure, after an execution of a buy entry IOrder, I am looking for the Position status of the execution. Ideally I would like to set a bool that says Long1 = true; when the buy entry is executed and I would like to set the execution Price to a double that can be used in a calculation.

[kenb2004]

This is what I had in mind. Will this code work? Will the Buy1Long bool work in OnBarUpdate as Position status for Buy_1?

Hello,

Looks like it should work, however it would require testing to make sure everything works as you expect.

Thanks, I just needed to know if I was on the right track.
