Order Entry at specific level

[arroganzmaschine]

You have any ideas? Thank you in advance

Hello arroganzmaschine,

If you want your strategy to enter a position before a bar is closed you may change the CalculateOnBarClose (COBC) to false so that your Strategy logic is processed on each incoming tick of data.

As for your image that you posted, by default an automated strategy will require at least 20 bars before it will start processing. To change this you may set the "Min. bar required" in the strategy parameters to 0 if you want the strategy to start processing right away.

Let me know if that helps.

[arroganzmaschine]

Will try it.

Ok, that worked fine. Can I integrate an ATM strategy to the script? I have some stoploss and breakeven settings that I want to use after I entered a position when the price crossed a line.

Many thanks for the help by now.

Yes, you can call an ATM Strategy directly from a NinajScript. You can see an example of this by going to Tools--> Edit NinjaScript--> Strategy--> SampleATMStrategy.

Documentation on our ATM Strategy methods can be found below:

Thank you very much! Will try it and communicate here.

Ok, that worked very well.

But I have another question that doesn't belong to the topic. Can I add the name of the instrument to the chart and display it in the upper right?

Thanks in advance.

You can use the Instrument.FullName property to return a string containing the instrument name:

And then pass this to a draw method, such as DrawTextFixed:

Do I have to create an indicator for that?

[NinjaTrader_Matthew]

You can create it either in an indicator, or your strategy.

Can you help me here? What is wrong?

Hello arroganzmaschine,

Thanks for your post.

To clarify, is the issue that your other chart objects are not displayed on the chart?
If this is the case what may be going on is the mountain may be on the top z order.

To adjust the z-order:

1. Select the chart object by left mouse clicking on it
2. Hold down the "Shift" key on your keyboard and roll the mouse scroll wheel to change the z-order of the object. The current position out of the total number of levels in the z-scale will be displayed.

I have a Demo Account with CQG Datafeed. Only the fdax Chart Displays correct. The other instruments have this big down Spike. But I dont know why.

Hello arroganzmaschine,

Thanks for the clarification.

I see that you are charting the FGBL 06-14. This instrument is not set to rollover in NinjaTrader until March 7th. Charting this instrument before the rollover with NinjaTrader's default merge policy will result in al lhistorical data being from the 03-14 contract and a large spike from the difference in price.

If you want to only view data for the selected contract you will need to go to Tools> Options> Data
Under MergePolicy select DoNotMerge

Below I have provided a link to the Understanding merge policies section of our help guide.

http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/helpGuides/nt7/index.html?historical_data.htm

The other option would be that you can modify when the instrument rolls over.
Below I have provided a link to our NinjaTrader 7 Tips - Adjust & Customize Roll Over Dates YouTube video.
