state of the ninjatrader

[Nick123]

There are many state such as :
1) State.Configure
2) State.Realtime
3) State.DataLoaded
........ and so on.
** Still have a lot but I didnt mentioned it out.

Can i know what is the sequence of all the state happens ??

Huh? What?
Why do you want to know that?

You're not supposed to care.
I mean, the exact sequence is not supposed to be that important.

State is not documented as a precise sequence of changes.

Ok, so with that said ...

Carefully study OnStateChange for details on which events cause
each State change.

Generally speaking, the state changes do happen in the order
they are documented -- but you won't find an explicit guarantee
on 'sequence' in the documentation. (*)

Remember, NinjaTrader is completely event driven, so the exact
sequence of state changes you would see depends on the events
that happen to transpire.

Thankfully, most events tend to happen in a certain order, so the
sequence of states is generally predictable. The OnStateChange
page has all the details. Just realize 'sequence' is mostly inferred
by the reader.

(*) Advanced concepts, including a state change diagram, are here.

Hello Nick123,

Thank you for your post.

bltdavid is correct. The state changes do happen in the order they are documented in the OnStateChange() help guide page. However, NinjaTrader is completely event-driven so the exact sequence of State changes you would see depends on the events that happen in your script.

NinjaTrader uses a State change system to represent various life cycles of your NinjaScript object. For more basic indicators and strategies, simply understanding each State described on the OnStateChange() help guide page is sufficient. However, for more advanced development projects, it is critical to understand how NinjaTrader calls these states for various instances throughout the lifetime of the entire application.

Please review the help guide documentation linked below for more information.
