PendingSubmit orders and couple of scripting issues

[JoeStein]

1.I have two orders in PendingSubmit state. It's been around for a few days. Even after closing and restarting NT, the orders are still there. Please let me know how I could get rid of these, it slows down the process of bringing up data on the chart. (This is on NT Sim).

2.double entryPoint

I need to define a condition within my script that checks for:
if GetCurrentBid() “touches” entryPoint......//then do something

Is there any operator available to check for the above condition, other than
( if GetCurrentBid() == entryPoint ) ? I'm just concerned that if the market is moving too fast, then the == operator may not work.

3. Sometimes I need to Cancel an order and reuse the IOrder object as given below:

entryOrder = EnterLongStop(0, true, quantity, upperValue, "");
		
if ( (GetCurrentBid() - lowerValue) < 0.001 )
{
	CancelOrder(entryOrder);
	entryOrder = null;
	entryOrder = EnterShortStop(0, true, quantity, lowerValue, "");
}

Does the API provide for a more efficient way to do the above. I'm just concerned that if the order is not cancelled for some reason, then what would happen to my null assignment followed by EnterShortStop to the entryOrder object.

Thanks so much for the help.

Hi JoeStein,

1. Please go to Tools > Options > Simulator > Misc and Reset the Simulator. Then the 'stuck' order should disappear.

2. Not sure I follow, if you fear you miss the entry point just use the script on CalculateOnBarClose = false - http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/H...BarClose1.html

3. Just check the OrderState for a cancel confirmation before reusing it - http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/H...V6/IOrder.html
