Hi everyone!

I have the following piece of code being called inside onTick()

this.engine.submitOrder("gGBPUSD", Instrument.fromString("GBPUSD"), IEngine.OrderCommand.BUY, 0.1, 0);

and it generated the following NullPointerException

java.lang.NullPointerException
   at com.dukascopy.dds2.greed.agent.A.submitOrder(Unknown Source)

   at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source)

I have checked that the engine object is not null because I can successfully call other methods on it like getAccount() etc. Any idea what could be causing this problem? Just FYI, this error started occurring at around 11:30 PM EST. Are we not allowed to place trades after a certain time of the day? I thought we could place trades 24 hours. I'm really clueless about this.

Any help would be most appreciated! Thanks!

I found the simple mistake I was making when submitting the order. I was missing a slash from Instrument.fromString("GBPUSD"). That was supposed to be Instrument.fromString("GBP/USD").
