Hello,
Actually you don't really need to build gui as it is already there
in the form of parameter window that can be used to place orders.
Sample code is included in the docs:
http://www.amibroker.com/at/
Excerpt:
Example 3:
3. Placing/modifying manually from Parameters dialog. Code to be applied in Indicator Builder. (Modified to use new features in
1.0.2)
This code can be run many times and it will modify existing order as long as it is not transmitted. It uses static variables to
store orderId from last run.
// Param block
TriggerOrder= ParamTrigger("Place order","Click here to place order");
Mode=ParamToggle("Mode","Modify existing|Always place new order");
ACT = ParamList("Action", "BUY|SELL|SSHORT");
OT = ParamList("Order Type", "MKT|LMT|STP");
TIF = ParamList("Time In Force", "DAY|GTC|IOC");
Ticker = ParamStr("Ticker",Name());
NumShares = Param("Number of Shares",10,10,100,10);
LimitPrice = LastValue(C) + Param("Limit Price offset",0,-0.1,0.1,0.01);
StopPrice = LastValue(C) + Param("Stop price offset",0,-0.1,0.1,0.01);
Transmit = ParamToggle("Transmit","Do NOT transmit|Transmit",0);
TriggerCancel = ParamTrigger("Cancel Order","Click here to Cancel order");
Msg = ""; // this variable stores error message text
// create instance of trading interface
ibc = GetTradingInterface("IB");
// retrieve orderID from previous run, will be empty if no order was placed before
OrderID = StaticVarGetText("OrderID"+Ticker);
if( TriggerOrder )
{
// check if we are connected OK
if( ibc.IsConnected() )
{
if( Mode == 1 ) OrderID = ""; // if mode set to 'always new' then clear orderid
// place orders only if we do not have already open position on this symbol
// place or modify the order - don't transmit yet
OrderID = ibc.ModifyOrder( OrderID, Ticker,
ACT, NumShares, OT, LimitPrice, StopPrice, TIF, Transmit);
// store orderID for next run so we know which order to modify
StaticVarSetText("OrderID"+Ticker, OrderID);
if( Mode == 1 )
Msg = "New order has been placed with ID = ";
else
Msg = "Order placed/modified with ID = ";
Msg = Msg + OrderID + " on " + Now();
}
else
{
Msg = "Placing order failed because of no connection to TWS";
}
}
if( TriggerCancel )
{
if( OrderId != "" )
{
if( ibc.CancelOrder( OrderId ) )
Msg = "Request to cancel order " + OrderID + " sent successfully";
else
Msg = "Request to cancel order " + OrderID + " failed.";
}
else
Msg = "Can not cancel order becase OrderID is empty";
}
// monitoring code
Title =
Msg +
"\nLast TWS message: "+ ibc.GetLastError(0) +
"\nAvailable funds: " + ibc.GetAccountValue("AvailableFunds")+
" Gross Pos. Value: " + ibc.GetAccountValue("GrossPositionValue")+
"\nOrderID = "+OrderId+
"\nTicker = "+Ticker+
"\nAction = "+ACT+
"\nShares = "+NumToStr(NumShares,1.0)+
"\nOrderType = "+OT+
"\nLimitPrice = "+NumToStr(LimitPrice,1.3)+
"\nStopPrice = "+NumToStr(StopPrice,1.3)+
"\nTimeInForce= "+TIF+
"\nTransmit = "+NumToStr(Transmit,1.0)+"\n"+
"\nGetStatus = "+ibc.GetStatus( OrderID )+
"\nGetPositionSize = "+ibc.GetPositionSize( Ticker )+
"\nIsConnected = "+NumToStr(ibc.IsConnected(),1.0);
