Definition

Sends a message or screen shot to a social network or Share Service.  

 

Notes:  

1.This method can only be called once the State has reached State.Realtime.  Calls to this method in any other State will be silently ignored.

2.You MUST configure an account with a Share Service provider from the General Options

 

 

Method Return Value

This method does not return a value.

 

Syntax

Share(string serviceName, string message)
Share(string serviceName, string message, object[] args)
Share(string serviceName, string message, string screenshotPath)
Share(string serviceName, string message, string screenshotPath, object[] args)

 

Parameters

serviceName

A string value representing the share service to be used

message

A string value representing the text body sent to the social network or other Share providers. Note:  The message is what appears in the text box of the Share window

screenshotPath

Optional string path to screenshot or other images sent to the social network or other Share providers

args

A generic object[] array used to designate additional information sent to the share service

 

 

Tips:

1.The "args" parameter differs for each share service used.  If you are using a custom developed share adapter, you need to work with the developer of that adapter to understand what the "args" parameter represents for that adapter.

2.For the default NinjaTrader share adapters, the "args" array represents the following:

 

Mail share service:

args[0] = A string representing the email "To" field,

args[1] = A string representing the email "Subject" field

 

StockTwits share service:

args[0] = An enum representing the "StockTwitsSentiment" parameter

 

 

Examples

ns

// using "args" as the Mail "To" and "Subject" parameters
Share("Gmail", "Test Message", new object[]{ "[email protected]", "Test Subject Line" });
