Undocumented CustomOrder in your guide

General Discussions

The guide for CreateOrder() does not clarify what the last parameter customOrder is for. I’d like to learn how to use it.

(see Instrument instrument, OrderAction action, OrderType orderType, OrderEntry orderEntry, TimeInForce timeInForce, int quantity, double limitPrice, double stopPrice, string oco, string name, DateTime gtd, CustomOrder customOrder) )

PS- can CreateOrder / Submit be used in a strategy or it would cause the strategy to auto close as Flatten does?

Thank you
Gio

Documentation on the hidden CustomOrder would be fantastic, but I don’t think you’re going to get any answers here. This forum isn’t reviewed by NT8 Support any longer.

I wrote at ScriptingSupport and even though it is an undocumented feature they replied giving me the lead:
