Gain Capital Currecy Tick Values
So ive been working on my ATM Strategies so that i can automatically place 2 target orders and 1 stop loss order upon execution of my entry orders by the ninja platform. i assumed ticks were the same as pips for the currency market. what i want to know is if i want to set my 1st profit target 168 pips away from my entry once the ninja platform executes my entry, how many "ticks" would i have to tell me atm strategy to place my limit orders? would it be 1680 ticks to get 168 pips? please let me know because i do not want to test it out live in my attempt to find the right calculation when all i need to know is where ninja locates the decimals when calculating the tick count for my ATM Strategy Stops & Targets... thanks!!Tags: None

Hello TakeYourProfits,
Can you please go to Control Center-->Tools-->Options-->Data-tab and check what setting is used for 'Quote currencies (FX) in'.
If set to Pip, you can enter 168 and your profit target will be submitted 168 pips away from your entry price. If set to HalfPip, you would enter a value of 336. TenthPip requires a value of 1680.JasonNinjaTrader Customer Service

Unfortunately this is not possible.
If you have an open position without any stop loss or profit target orders protecting it you can submit orders manually.
Please right click in the SuperDOM and enable 'OCO order'.
Submit the orders that will function as your stop loss and profit target. For example, if you are in a long position, you will submit a sell limit order (profit target) and a sell stop market or stop limit order (stop loss).
Right click in the SuperDOM and disable 'OCO order'. Please do not forget to disable it. If it remains enabled, all subsequent orders will be submitted as OCO orders.JasonNinjaTrader Customer Service
