Get list of orders?

[doloop]

I've recently run across Backtrader. It is an impressive piece of software, but I think the learning curve is a bit steep (at least for me!) ;-(

My question: I don't want to enter an order if I already entered one in the previous one or two days. So, I just want to check whether an order was entered. Something like this pseudo-code:

if not order[-2] and not order[-1]:
    order.buy()

How would I do that?

Whenever you create a new order, track the length of self (current index) in a variable.

So in your strategy:

def __init__(self):
    self.track_last_order = 0

def next(self):
    if (len(self) - self.track_last_order) > 2:
        # you make a new order here... then
        self.track_last_order = len(self)

[doloop]

@run-out Thank you!
