Trying to finish this exercise but it kept failing. I even copied the solution but it keeps failing.
The code is :
namespace QuantConnect
{
public partial class BootCampTask : QCAlgorithm
{
OrderEvent lastOrderEvent;
public override void Initialize()
{
SetStartDate(2018, 12, 1);
SetEndDate(2019, 4, 1);
SetCash(100000);
var spy = AddSecurity(SecurityType.Equity, "SPY", Resolution.Daily);
spy.SetDataNormalizationMode(DataNormalizationMode.Raw);
}
public override void OnData(Slice slice)
{
if (!Portfolio.Invested)
{
MarketOrder("SPY", 500);
StopMarketOrder("SPY", -500, 0.90m * Securities["SPY"].Close);
}
}
public override void OnOrderEvent(OrderEvent orderEvent)
{
//Some debugging to assist you.
Debug(orderEvent.ToString());
//1. Write code to only act on fills
if(orderEvent.Status!=OrderStatus.Filled)
{
return;
}
//2. Use debug to print the order id, and save the order event to lastOrderEvent
lastOrderEvent = orderEvent;
}
}
}

Hi Nelson,
Thanks for reporting this. I just re-tested this BootCamp, and it seems to be working again, however, please update if you are still having issues with this BootCamp.
