OrderMan - Ordering interface for NOW + Amibroker
- Thread starter TracerBullet
- Start date
Take it from git here, This link will always have latest code.
I use NOW, so thats the main platform. Nest is tested for few brokers now so hopefully should work.
To keep it simple, install AHK and then run OrderMan.ahk. You will have to add some columns in Orderbook. SnakeHead had written some instructions earlier in thread, can look at it if stuck.

As i said install AHK, then can 'run' OrderMan.ahk.
AHK is interpretor, Can 'compile' to exe but i dont want hassle after every update.
Otherwise can use portable version of AHK and batch script to run it ( This is what i do). Modify as needed depending on exe path.
Code:
START ./../AHK/AutoHotkey.exe OrderMan.ahk@Tracerbullet,
When I start a transaction with SL order, orderman defaults to Limit for my Stop Loss order. e.g. -
I put in New order of type SL for Axisbank - Buy if Price goes above 540. SL is 538.5
The Order is executed when Axis bank rises to 540.10.
Orderman puts Limit Sale order for 538.5. So the order is executed immediately and generally for small loss.
Please guide me where to look for correction.

Really? Its very different for me.
For me, the Stop Loss Order is by default "SL-M" Order. And the Order Type cannot be changed (As far as Stop Order is concerned).
My request to TracerBullet is:
Plz make a provision for choosing Stop Order Type. I want to choose SL-Limit type order. But I can't do it.
Thanks

Never seen this, Stop is supposed to be SLM only. Just to be sure, Take latest git code and set its settings separately ( ie dont overwrite with old one). Then test it with 1 size in cash stock. If the problem is persistant, try to debug it with scite or zip the folder and ill check it.
To avoid actual execution of trades while testing you can do this
1) In GUIControls/Now.ahk - change below. This is status that says entry order is complete.You can put rejected or cancelled, then OM will think entry is triggered when you cancel / reject entry order
2) You can input values outside allowed range (circuit) in entry/stop order so they get rejected always
I dont intend to change it as SL Limit will create complications. If you are willing to check manually when stop does not fill you can try setting order type in settings.ahk. Change

It should work, but this is not tested. It will take limit price using MaxSlippage set in settings.

Case 1.
Axisbank opened and went down, then started rising. It was howevering around 527.85
I clicked a New order 'SL' at trigger price 528.0 Stop 527 and target 0
Order Trigered at 9:38:21 for 528.05 when Axisbank rose above 528.
Orderman immediately sold the share at 527.8 and closed the trade
Case 2. At 10:53, Axisbank was going down It was around 527.9. I changed STOP_ORDER_TYPE := "SLM" to STOP_ORDER_TYPE := "SL".
Entry for Sale at 527.8 Order Type 'SL'
Stop at 529
Target 0
Orderman complained "STOP Order Type 'SL' is invalid"
Case 3. Changed STOP_ORDER_TYPE := "SL" to STOP_ORDER_TYPE := "SLM"
Entry for Sale at 527.8 Order Type 'SL'
Stop at 529
Target 0
Sale executed at 527.75
Stop executed at 527.80.
Message " Trade Closed Verify"
Note: I do not see 'SLM' type of order in NOW. However, when I type SLM in OrderType, it goes to SL.
