When does IOrder become null?

[timmbbo]

Hi there, does the IOrder object become null after the order is filled, or completed? Say I have the code:

private IOrder entryOrder;
SetStopLoss(4 ticks);
SetProfitTarget(4 ticks)
entryOrder = EnterLongLimit(current price)

Assume EnterLongLimit successfully executes upon the order. Then, does entryOrder become NULL when the order is successfully filled. Or, does entryOrder become null only after the stop loss or profit target is hit? Thanks,

Hello,

Thanks for your post.

IOrder objects that you create in your code are not managed by NinjaTrader, so you must manage them yourself. The IOrder object does not become null unless you specifically set it to be null in your code.

The following help guide link on IOrder objects demonstrate their handling in NinjaTrader.
