Close Button on DOM Kills Strategy on Separate Chart

[Big D]

Setup: Running a strategy on an ES chart against the Sim101 account. Strategy was not in a trade at the time. From the DOM, on the same Sim101 account, I entered a manual order and hit the close button. Strategy on chart was killed. Why?

Hello,

Thank you for your post.

You need to change your "ATM Strategy selection mode" to "display selected ATM Strategy only."

Please see this link for more information: http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/H...ategyMode.html

I did change the mode prior to posting the question and I did it again after your reply and it does not work.

Here are the steps I performed:
1) Open Ninja and connect to ZenFire.
2) Change DOM account to Sim101.
3) Change ATM Strategy selection mode => display selected ATM Strategy only
4) Load strategy on chart
5) Go back to DOM, enter market order, hit close button.
6) Boom, strategy is closed.

Try it yourself and let me know how it works for you.

The reason it is closing out is you have <none> selected next to ATM Strategy on the SuperDOM.

You need to create an ATM Strategy and have it selected in the SuperDOM and hit close. This will close only your ATM Strategy and not your Strategy running in the chart.

Please let me know if you get it to work.
