You should uncomment the line "var order = Transactions.GetOrderById(orderEvent.OrderId);" and use
if(Portfolio.Invested && order.Status==OrderStatus.Filled) { Debug("aVE PRICE" + Portfolio["IWM"].AveragePrice); }
The stack trace can not give the line number of error like "Runtime Error: Object reference not set to an instance of an object". It means you didn't assign "ticket" while using its property.
