Hi,

I have a GUI as a strategy that sends orders as you click on the designates buttons on the GUI depending on the order. Unfortunately strategies can be run the fastest as tick by tick. That causes my orders to wait the next tick until they are executed.

I'm wondering if there is a workaround for this problem in a strategy or any other solution that would send orders instant? Or can your source code be modified for jforex to add additional options to the platform from my side.

Naturally this was designed to automate different orders as they are logically processed but initial entry to the market will "lag" as stated above.

I suggest you execute your order when the button is pressed.. lol.

I do it inside the mouse listener, e.g. like so:

Syntax: [ Download ] [ Hide ]

Future<IOrder> future = context.executeTask(new Callable<IOrder>(){
public IOrder call(){
try{
String label = "B" + dateFormat.format(new Date());
return engine.submitOrder(label, Instrument.EURUSD, IEngine.OrderCommand.BUY, amount, 0, slippage);
}
catch(JFException e){
cout.println(e.getMessage());
return null;
}
}
});
