Hello APISupport,

is it possible to add an extra messages for order closed by strategy in addition to TP and SL?

e.g ORDER_CLOSED_BY_Strategy

There is no necessity to do that, as the strategy itself can keep track on its actions, i.e., when it closes orders.

Hello APISupport,

can you show me how do i know if an order is closed by strategy? I want to know when an order is being closed so that my strategy can check the order's comment field and based on the comment field, do something.

Also do some manual trading while running the strategy:

package jforex.orders;

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
import com.dukascopy.api.IEngine.OrderCommand;
import com.dukascopy.api.*;

/**
 * The strategy demonstrates how to detect if an order got
 * closed by the strategy itself or the close was done manually
 * or from another strategy.
 * 
 * Test its work by doing some manual trading in parallel.
 *

public class OrderClosedByStrategy implements IStrategy {
    
    private IConsole console;
    private IEngine engine;
    private int counter;
    
    List<IOrder> ordersClosedByStrategy = new ArrayList<IOrder>();
        
    @Override
    public void onStart(IContext context) throws JFException {
        console = context.getConsole();
        engine = context.getEngine();
      
    }

    @Override
    public void onBar(Instrument instrument, Period period, IBar askBar, IBar bidBar) throws JFException {
        if(instrument != Instrument.EURUSD || period != Period.TEN_SECS){
            return;
        }
        
        IOrder order = engine.submitOrder("myOrder"+counter++, Instrument.EURUSD, OrderCommand.BUY, 0.1, 0, 20, 0, 0, 0, this.getClass().getSimpleName() + " order");
        order.waitForUpdate(2000, IOrder.State.FILLED); //wait for fill to close it
        close(order);
        
    }
    
    private void close(IOrder order) throws JFException{
        order.close();
        ordersClosedByStrategy.add(order);
    }
    
    private void print(Object o){
        console.getOut().println(o);
    }

        if(ordersClosedByStrategy.contains(order)){
