[Programming API] Work around for the Automatic Clearing of Orders.

View Count: 311

Hi,

My automated study relies on looking at past orders that are of type MARKET and status FILLED, OPEN, or CLOSE.

Since there is this "Automatic Clearing of Orders" going on I lose track of these orders.

I could add the orders to a map as they are filled but that won't persist on a restart.

Is there a work around for this?

TIA

One way would be to stream to a csv file, load file on restart and reconcile the data.

one new forum thread per block of code in your project. i think we should just write it for you and your "customers", @LTSystems 🤣

it's a little bit insulting considering every question i've seen is well covered in the acsil documentation and very general programming principles

rtfm 🤪

i'm not affiliated with sierra chart, i am a user just like you

most of us here are enthusiastic to help. i mean i've linked you over and over to documentation and have written you over 150 lines of code specific to your use case

but you're just being a vampire

you don't have the patience to bookmark and search the acil function reference page

but expect us to have the patience to spoon feed it to you?

shame on us for making the effort

Thanks for the help.. I was hoping maybe there was some persistence table in SC already I could write to.

I've thanked everyone for their help.. I tell them I appreciate their help a lot.

Maybe you're just too nice?

I just find it really hard to understand the docs and the function naming convention.

Thanks for that. I'll check it out tomorrow.

Hopefully I can help you back in the future. ;)
