Placing and canceling orders

Typically you would place or cancel orders in DoProcessBar function of your Ticker Strategy. There is a number of functions that can place orders:

BuyMarket
SellMarket
SellShortMarket
BuyBackMarket

BuyStop
SellStop
SellShortStop
BuyBackStop

BuyLimit
SellLimit
SellShortLimit
BuyBackLimit

All of these functions create and return IOrder object. For example you can place stop sell GTC order by calling SellStop function and then setting TimeInForce property of the order object:

000: IOrder order = SellStop(25.00, 100);

001: order.TimeInForce = TimeInForce.GTC;

Call Cancel function to cancel order. The following code example cancels last placed order if its direction is long:

000: IOrder lastOrder = Ticker.Orders.Last;

001: if (lastOrder != null && lastOrder.IsActive)

002: {

003: if (lastOrder.Side == OrderSide.Buy)

004: lastOrder.Cancel();

005: }
