I am using efs and ATI and would like to be able to suspend a trade in progress, and trading for the dayin general, when a certain P/L is reached.
To do this I need to be able to retreive the P/L status during each trade/strategy. I am scaling out of each strategy with multiple trailing stops and so far do not know of a way to keep track of how the strategy is doing (or did)other than watching it manually. I know we can useNTStrategyPosition to see if we are still in the trade but this does not help determine cash value.
Essentially I want to be ableto turn on ATI and go play golf for the day, knowing that my maximum risk for the day is say $500. Or, even better, gain climbs to $1,400 and trading stops when it drops back to $900, locking in the gain....a trailing account balance feature. I am happy to take care of this feature at my end and need the above information to be retrievable.
In the meantime, is there a function/feature within NT that limits account losses?
Just as a note: in the sim accounts anyway, the cash value often does not correspond with the Realized P/L. For example, a cash value of $100,500 with no trades outstanding might have a Realized P/L of $900....which should be $500.
