Real-time connection status monitoring & position open/close events
01 Aug 2021, 20:01

Dear friends,

When developing a dashboard tool to reflect the account status, which API functions better allow the implementation of:

1) Real-time connection status monitoring (Needed to display in the tool GUI as connected/disconnected)
2) Real-time position open/close events (Needed for real-time trade monitoring)

Thank you / Kind Regards

Hi,

You have to use ExecutionEvent, whenever a trader executes a trading operation you will receive an execution event with the trading operation details.

Regarding connection status, you have to use your socket and check if you can send/receive a message or not, there is also a client disconnected proto message that you can use.

Please check our OpenAPI.NET WPF and ASP web app samples.

For more please check the Open API documentation.

Dear amusleh,

Thank you for your reply.

Does ExecutionEvent also apply to position modification (TP, SL or partial closes)?

Thank you
