Error while adding a balance trade

[rorymac]

Hello All

I am on the develop branch
SHA ffd3fd1

I am switching to a new computer and need to add a few balance trades to get the position in line with the broker.
Through interactive_order_stack :
Menu 1 Create orders
Then menu item 13 Balance trade

Here is the output :

Your choice? <RETURN for Back> 13
Most likely use case here is that IB has closed one of your positions as close to the expiry
Or an edge case in which an order was submitted and then filled whilst you were not monitoring fills
Or perhaps you are trading manually
Trades have to be attributed to a strategy (even roll trades)
Auto close an existing position (if not, manually enter details)?n

The same happens at the 14. Balance instrument Trade

There is no request for a strategy.
Does this need some code amended?

It seems your private configuration file is not configured properly?

In the default confiugration file, defaults.yaml, strategy_list is commented out. It may explain why the script works up to a point where trying to retreive the strartegy list.

You could check with

from sysdata.data_blob import dataBlob
data = dataBlob()
print(data.config.private_config_filename)
print(data.config.get_element('strategy_list'))
