News Trading Automation

[honkin]

Is there anyway to have NT6.5 automate trading news like you can using an EA in MT4?

I basically want to be able to select the news items I want to trade and place an OCO order 10 pips either side of price maybe 90 seconds out from news and have it keep 10 pips out from news until around 20 seconds out.

I would want to be able to set stop loss in pips, breakeven at X pips and a profit target, with possibly even a trailing stop once X is hit.

All of this is possible with an EA in MT4 and I wondered if it is also possible in NT.

cheers

honkin, this would not be supported by default but should be realizable with C# / NinjaScript custom coding.

Hi Bertrand

I am not familiar with writing NinjaScript. Are you able to recommend somewhere I might find someone who could possibly do the job for me?

If not, would you be able to assist me in learning how to write it myself?

Thanks for your time

honkin, there's an extensive of NinjaScript consultants available who could help you creating the code needed - http://www.ninjatrader.com/partners....pt-Consultants

If you're new to NinjaScript development I suggest you review the indicator coding tutorials we've created first to get you started on the basics -
