    Different stop losses and targets

    Hi, I am using an ATM strategy to move my stop with good success.

    I am having trouble when I add a new contract. The new contract always uses the initial trades stoploss and take profit. On my second contract I need to have a different target. So it is like it was its own individual trade and not just scaling in.

    For example I buy the first contract and it has an initial stoploss of 10 and a take profit of 40, and then auto trail the stop every 10 points. WhenI decide the trade is going good, I buy a second contract. I want it to be targeting 40 which will be a higher price than the 1st contract target, and the stop will follow along according to the ATM settings. So each individual trade would be treated as its own.

    I am sure it must be a checkmark somewhere, but I can't find it. Any idea how I can do this?

    spikebuck77, you can control the ATM strategy behavior with the ATM strategy selection mode setting - http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...ction_mode.htm

    You would look fo the 'keep selected' mode here.
