Tradestation 8 and ATI

[guerind]

I create trades from Tradestation 8.xvia the NT ATI. Can I use a custom NT exit strategy, that was setup in the NT SuperDom to manage me targets and stops? ( I have the custom NT strategy setup for 2 profit levels and changing the stop loss after the first profit targe is reached.)

If I can do this, could I get the RunCommand coding if my Exit strategy is named ER2?

Best regards,

Dan

Not sure I understand 100% but if you are asking if you can reference an Exit strategy (not regular strategy) through the ATI the answer is no, it is not supported.

Ray,

What are you referring to by a regular strategy?

Strategy that submits stops and targets.

Ray,

OK.......I will just write one for Tradestation........Do you have a sample profit/exit strategy for Tradestation?

Ray,

I have written code in Tradestation to submit orders to NinjaTrader......I am pasting in unique order ID's in each order.....I am getting the trades to NinjaTrader but the unique order ID's are not showing on the orders tab.....I checked the NinjaTrader log and the unique order ID's are included in the transmitted order.....

I am using the SIM account....

What is going wrong?

Best,

Correct, they are not shown in the orders tab.

Ray,

I cant find them under any tab......Should they not show up under orderID in NinjaTrader?

Hi Dan,

They will not show up anywhere except maybe the log tab showing the ATI command. This is an internal user order id and not a system/exchange order id.

Ray,

Oh Boy......then how do I get the current open trade ID assigned by the system?

Programatically? In EL, create a variable, orderId and hold the order id value in this variable.
