Bracket Orders

[jtrade]

I cannot see reference to these in the user instructions (please tell me if there is), but via a forum search I see I can right click the Basic Entry window... but is there a way to set up an OCO bracket order in Chart Trader ?

Right click in the ChartTrader section and you will see the 'OCO order' option as well.

In addition, you can also use an ATM strategy to pre-define your stop and target. More information can be found at the link below.

Thanks, Jason - I was right clicking the chart, not the order entry part !

I will experiment with this function...

Jason - looking at the link you posted above, I see the Reverse at Stop option : can this be set to only operate once, ie. reverse at first stop, then cancel ?

[NinjaTrader_Jason]

Yes, this is supported. To disable the Rev at stop feature right click in the SuperDOM and disable 'Reverse at stop'. More information can be found at the link below.

Thanks, Jason, but I mean is there a way to ensure the reverse at stop will not execute more than once. I have a method that reverses the first time the stop is hit, but not subsequent times. I see I can MANUALLY turn this off, but I wonder if NT could be set to do this ?

After your entry order is filled and your ATM strategy is triggered, you can manually add a stop limit order for the same order quantity at the price of your stop loss.

It is not supported using the 'Rev at stop' feature.
