    Changing a stop

    Hi

    I been playing with the ATM stuff with simulated data. (The
    set-up doesn't seem obviously at all.)

    Setting that aside,
    let's say I use (for the YM):

    a 3 point stop, with a profit trigger of 4 Plus 1.

    Auto trail Stop loss = 10
    Frequency = 2
    Profit trigger = 10

    Ok, so I go long, I decide at various points in various trades
    to move my stop closer than I programmed it.

    First, is this a bad idea, from the NT software's standpoint?

    I will experiment here to try to understand, however, what does
    the software do? If a trade is well underway for example, and I move
    the stop to 5 points below, and yet the ATM I programmed says 10
    points?.....

    Hello,

    Tell me what you want your ATM to do and provide a screen shot of your parameters and I can assist you better with the proper inputs.
    This link may help:


    As for moving your stop, if you have a trailing stop it will auto adjust your stop to what you programmed it to do even after you move it once.

      Yes it does re-adjust even after I manually
      move the stop. This is enough for now.
