[skan]

Hello

How can I check from easylanguage whether the market filleda a stop or limit order?

Thanks

Hi skan

There are a number of different ways to do this but one way would be to use the "Print" command; you could also use an "Alert" it depends on why you want to check.

If you are still developing and testing a strategy then you would most likely use the "Print" command. You'd then check the Easy Language Output Bar to see the results. You can also output to a file on your computer.

If you are trading your system live then you'd use the "Alert" command so that you can be notified when a trade takes place.

Hi
Imagine you got disconnected for several hours and you want to check whether your stop order is still active. I guess one cannot print something Multicharts is not aware of. I need to check the real status on the broker.

Hi Scan

Sorry, I don't use Multicharts and don't know how it interacts with brokers.
