Hello, we are getting the error message "BuyEntry signal is ignored because working orders exists" when submitting multiple orders while one is 'open'. According to the documentation if we specify a target/stop attached orders are automatically used and we should be able to use multiple attached orders even if they are still open. Our use case is simple, under a certain condition we want to submit an order with a target but not a stop. The buy order code is as follows: s_SCNewOrder createOrder(SCStudyInterfaceRef sc, float currentPrice, int quantity, float stopOffset, float targetOffset, bool isLong) { SCString DebugMessage; DebugMessage.Format("*************** ************* Creating new order. Quantity=%d Current Price %f- Stop=%f, Traget=%f, TickSize=%f", quantity, currentPrice, stopOffset, targetOffset, sc.TickSize); sc.AddMessageToLog(DebugMessage, 0); s_SCNewOrder NewOrder; NewOrder.OrderQuantity = quantity; NewOrder.TimeInForce = SCT_TIF_GOOD_TILL_CANCELED; NewOrder.OrderType = SCT_ORDERTYPE_MARKET; NewOrder.OCOGroup1Quantity = 1; NewOrder.Target1Offset = targetOffset; NewOrder.AttachedOrderTarget1Type = SCT_ORDERTYPE_LIMIT; //NewOrder.Stop1Offset = stopOffset; return NewOrder; } Then we just send that to a buyEntry call, any ideas as to what may be wrong? |
