Add ATM Target & No Stop (Manual Stop)

[coryrh]

Hi,

Is it possible to set up an ATM with a target an no stop? I want to execute an ATM entry that immediately sets a target but I do not want a stop entered. I want to control the stop manually. How can this be done?

Thanks!

Hello Cory,

Thank you for your post.

Unfortunately when using an ATM Strategy you must specify a Stop Loss.

I will forward this to our development team for future considerations.

Please let me know if I may be of further assistance.

Cory,

There are a couple of workarounds for what you are trying to accomplish. The most effective way would be to initially set the stop target far away from your actual intended stop target then manually adjust your stop (red bar) and manage the trade that way. If you set it too far away don't forget to uncheck "auto center" so you can actually 'grab it' and bring it back into the working range. I do it all the time.
