How to know if a strategy placed a buy order

[7robert]

Hello!

There is some function in ninjascript that lets me know when I made a buy order (And I have not sold). ? Thanks

Hello 7robert,

Thanks for your post.

Typically within NinjaScript, you would check the strategy's position with Position.MarketPosition and Position.Quantity to get the quantity in that direction.

If you would like to track when an order is pending or has been submitted, cancelled or filled, I recommend using OnOrderUpdate for this purpose. It can also be helpful to track each order as their own Order object.
