Strategy not picking up OnRender() method

[daigo1]

Perfect Jim, this works beautifully for my purposes. Thanks so much!

Welcome to the forums daigo1!

The OnRender code works, but you are not checking for any mouse clicks before submitting the order. When I test, an order is submitted immediately and then the strategy disables because of an order being submitted to an invalid price.

I have attached an example strategy that can demonstrate using mouse clicks to submit orders.

We look forward to assisting.

I am trying to make a Strategy that enters a long order every time I click on a price:

        private double lastValue;

        protected override void OnRender(ChartControl chartControl, ChartScale chartScale)
        {
            Point cursorPoint = chartControl.MouseDownPoint;

            if (chartScale.GetValueByYWpf(cursorPoint.Y) != lastValue)
            {
                Print(String.Format("Mouse clicked at price {0}", chartScale.GetValueByYWpf(cursorPoint.Y)));
                EnterLongStopMarket(lastValue, "long"+CurrentBar.ToString());
            }

            lastValue = chartScale.GetValueByYWpf(cursorPoint.Y);
        }

But it doesn't seem to pick up any clicks from the mouse, even though on an Indicator it does (but I can't use an Indicator since I can't place orders on them).
