Custom control GUI to flatten positions

[nina2020a]

Hi There,
I was looking to get a custom control GUI built that will flatten positions .
The PL value will be specified on the GUI in a custom text field, and if that PL value is reached the position would be flattened. Currently its assumed that only one instrument will be trading at a time.

Based on my research on NT documentation I found that DLL interface with will do the job.

Hi nina2020a, officially we would not have supported approaches in this area unfortunately, if you can call the dll in your custom project and establish the needed communication I don't see why it should not work for the monitoring. Via undocumented NinjaScript you would though have access to the Flatten call as well - http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/f...ad.php?t=51556

Hi Bertrand,
Thanks for the response .
Just found out that there is no function for total PL ( i.e. realized + open) in the dll api.

Is there a way to flatten from Market Analyzer ? We already have some custom code in MA.

Thanks
