How to get the first trade of an account?

[ccruells]

Hello.

How can I get the first historical trade of an account?

I can get the first trade of a strategy, fetching:

Trade firstTrade = SystemPerformance.AllTrades[0];

, but I need the same of my account, not the strategy.

Thank you very much.

Hello,

Thank you for the post.

In this case, because you want the actual account trades this would not be an item Strategies have by default. All of the reporting items in Strategies specifically will relate to only the running instance of that specific strategy. To utilize the Account, you could reference the addon account methods: http://ninjatrader.com/support/helpG...ount_class.htm

You could use the following example to loop through an accounts orders:

To access the account, please see the following example as this step is omitted in the above samples, mainly just the portion noted "// Find our Sim101 account": http://ninjatrader.com/support/helpG...ount_class.htm

Please let me know if I may be of additional assistance.
