Can ATM's be custom coded?

[Jeremytang]

Is there an API that allows us to customize an ATM strategy in code?

Hello JeremyTang,

Unfortunately this not available. You can call an ATM strategy from a NinjaScript strategy or copy ATM behavior in NinjaScript with custom code.

Is it possible to use an ATM strategy as stop loss and profit target mechanism while running an Ninjascript strategy?

Hello sandeshrai,

Yes, this is possible. There is provided sample in platform. Click Tools > Edit NinjaScript > Strategy > SampleAtmStrategy

I wanted to know if it is possible to use the ATM strategy in the chart rather than coding it within my script. That is, is it possible to make the ATM Strategy active directly on the chart without calling it from within the script.

I am not a programmer. But I have created a ATM strategy and an Strategy Wizard strategy and would like to run both of them together.

Sorry about not being clear about my message the first time around.

Using an ATM strategy in your NinjaScript strategy requires working with code. Unfortunately there's no way to create this in the strategy wizard only.

I dont need to use it in the strategy wizard. I just need to use them on the same trade. For example, In enter the trade using my Strategy Wizard strategy, but use the stop loss and profit target from the ATM strategy. I just want to enable the ATM strategy on the chart while the strategy is also enabled.

You must work in code to have a NinjaScript strategy connect to an ATM strategy. There's no other way to join the two.
