Keeps asking me to transmit orders...

Hi,

I am running a strategy with code that updates the orders every tick if unfilled, the problem is, it asks me to resubmit every tick or so, even if the buy and sell orders are the same value... so what do i do about that? is there a way where it wont keep asking me to submit new orders?

A better question would be for me to change my code where it wont resubmit orders that are the same, what function can i use to do that?

i need a function that will detect if there are existing orders that are unfilled which can be verified by number of shares , price , etc

There's no such function already available as far as I know; you need to code this yourself in your strategy.

There's no function to stop sending orders; you need to code that in your strategy.

That's the default behaviour of MultiCharts; as long as your order conditions remain true, the order is submitted. If you don't want to resubmit orders, you need to code that in your strategy.

ok what code can i use to find if there are any unfilled open entries?

KhaosTrader, you need to disable "Require Order confirmation" in Format->Strategy properties->Auto Trading tab.

got it.

Also I am putting in "if OpenEntriesCount=0 then.." as a condition in my entry code.. is that right?

See Josh's reply.

It depends on what you are trying to achieve. This code checks that you have no filled entries at the broker. It does not check whether you have unfilled entries or not.
