How to understand which order was updated by using outgoing folder?

[romulko]

Hello there.
I use OIF orders and place them into "incoming" folder. In additional, I specify unique orderId and ocoId for each order.

Would you be so kind to tell me - how can I understand when my order reaches TP or SL (I use ATM strategy with id "myATM")?

As I understand - there is outgoing folder with "Information Update Files".
When my order with orderId=1 is filled in, then the file Sim101_1.txt is created in outgoing folder. ATM strategy automatically creates TP and SL orders.

And here is the question - how can I be notified when either TP or SL order reached exactly the orderId=1?

Thank you.

Hello romulko,

The outgoing file will have an ID in the filename with the exit order when it fills (also true for the entry order). You can match this with the ID column in the Orders tab of the Control Center.

But how my system can understand when stop loss or take profit order was filled by using only generated files in outgoing folder?

For example - my system generate a signal and write it in incoming folder. NT processed it and open an order in the market. If the TP will be filled I need to send it order again.

And the question is - how can I understand when TP or SL will be filled?

My system speaks with NinjaTrader only through incoming and outgoing folders - there no way to match order id with ID column in NinjtaTrader program.

Hello romulko,

Your program wouldn't have a way to tell other than the position changing.
