Good morning. Using multiple orders, for example, I would like to order the opening of the positions in order of ascending or descending Symbol.Name (or other criteria). How can I do?
Thank you

The easiest way to accomplish is to execute the orders in System rather than Symbol. Symbols can be accessed via SymbolScripts[symbol].Method where 'Method' is any method on SymbolScript, e.g. NewBar, NewTick, etc.

Thank you very muth dwebber.

Dear Duane, I tried as you suggested me but seems to do not work.
Infact i try to order the symbols in descending mode, but they're always ascending in the trade list results.
Here is the code:

public class MySystem : MySystemBase
{
   public List orderedSymbolScripts;   
   
   public override void NewBar()
   {      
      this.orderedSymbolScripts = (from ss in this.SymbolScripts
                      orderby ss.Symbol.Name descending
                      select ss).ToList();      
      
      foreach (MySymbolScript ss in this.orderedSymbolScripts)
      {
         this.SymbolScripts[ss.Symbol.Name].trade();
      }         
   }
   
}



public partial class MySymbolScript : MySymbolScriptBase
{   
   public void trade()
   {         
      Position pos = this.OpenPosition(setPositionSettings(PositionType.Long));               
   }      
}

I forgot about this thread…let me know if this helps, or at least answers your question:

Thank you Duane, unfortunately I have not found the answer!
I would like to sort the list of symbols to buy. For example I would like to buy before the symbol 'B' than 'A'. It is possible to do this?
Thank you again.

Per the above post, is CreateTicksFromBars = true or false? If true, I don't believe it is supported. The issue that I was trying to solve was to sort orders and execute not based on alphabetical order, but on different criteria.

Duane

Hi Duane,
i've not set CreateTicksFromBars property, so it is set by default value i think.
Thank you.

Massimo

I'm not quite sure I understand the situation entirely, so let me ask some questions if I may. Has this code been run in the debugger line by line? What exactly is not in the desired order? The 'trade results' list may not be in the order in which the orders were issued, if I understand what is happening.

(Don't mind me if I have gone off on a tangent --- just trying to understand in more detail. It seems like an interesting problem to solve.)

Massimo,

   Please run the system in the Visual Studio debugger and let us know the value of CreateTicksFromBars. If it is true, the last indication from RightEdge is that what you are trying to do is not currently supported.

Also, what is the reason that you are trying to place order by alphabetical order? Or is there a different sort order that you are trying to accomplish? I ask because in general it is not a good idea to place sorted orders as it may not reflect a live system.
