Simulated Stop Limit Orders

[aljafp]

hi,
Using unmanaged orders, can we send simulated Stop Limit Orders in NinjaScript ?

if so what is the syntax ? SubmitOrder doesn't seem to have any option to indicate that the order is simulated.

thanks

Unfortunately not aljafp, this is a true unmanaged approach - there would no under the hood NT order management / checks, thus you would need to self code the desired function in this mode.

Ok, then under managed mode, is there a way to send Simulated Stop Limit in NinjaScript ?

Non of these methods
ExitLongStopLimit, ExitShortStopLimit have a simulated flag as parameter.

I am asking because, the product i am trading, the API only supports limit orders.

Or are we saying In reality, irrespective of managed or unmanaged mode, there is just no way for Ninja Script Strategy code to send Simulated Stop limit orders ?

thanks

Unfortunately this is only supported for SetStopLoss() under regular managed order handling - to workaround this just send the StopLimit order in the moment you need it and don't 'park' them ahead of time.

hi Bertrand could you clarify... As i already mentioned my broker's Pats API only support Limit Orders. So how do I "just send the StopLimit order in the moment you need it" ? thanks

aljafp, sorry missed that, you would then need to work with Limit orders and mointor for the price when you want it send / placed.
