I completely understand.
But, I just wanted to emphasize the massive improvement over NT7 with NT8. Gone are the one chart dominates or Market Analyzer etc on loading or refreshing .... over the entire NT7 platform etc etc
Yes, probably lots of improvements in NT8....but I think they still separate Strategy base from Indicator base code...that is many methods for orders and positions probably are still not available in the indicator base?
Is that true?
I trade primarily from the chart and have had to write a lot of code to do it the way I need/want. My indicators are a hybrid....they can submit orders or just let me manually place trades with a single click, et cetera. Automated exits (not ATM), etc.
That means porting a good portion of my code to NT8 is probably going to be a big effort.
Unless NT8 has dissolved the difference between an indicator and a strategy, I am going to wait as long as I can to port.
Hi @vantojo
I am not sure if your problem is still actual, however I solve this problem in an Indicator (NT7) by using own version of OnOrderUpdate() and by subscribe OrderStatusEventHandler().
Yes, it looks like this is a much better solution that what I came up with...which was to scan the Cbi account and order collections each time I needed to get an update on order status (in an indicator)
I'm not really a C# guy but have been able to do amazing things by reading code here at Futures.IO and of course, from suggestions and tips from its members.
