Hi mto1995,

Thanks for posting your question, but it is not very clear what exactly you need. From what I understand you want something to happen after the limit order is triggered. Can you please elaborate on that so that the community can help you?

Hi mto1995,

If you want to place a Buy order above the market price then you need to place a Stop Order, not a Limit Order. See below

        protected override void OnTick()
        {
            if (Positions.Count == 0 && PendingOrders.Count == 0)
            {
                PlaceStopOrder(TradeType.Buy, Symbol, 10000, (Symbol.Ask + 0.001), "e", 5, 10);
            }

        }

Best Regards,

Panagiotis
