Cancelling a SetTrailStop() Order

[SilverSurfer1]

Hello.

Can the following be done in an NT Strategy?

I have a SetTrailStop() in the OnExecution() section of a strategy.

If the trade makes $50 in profit, I want to set a BreakEven Stop Loss in the OnUpdate() section (.i.e. SetStopLoss(CalculationMode.Price, Position.AvgPrice).

At this point, is there any way to cancel the SetTrailStop() that was set in the OnExecution() section?

I want to cancel the SetTrailStop() and just let the SetStopLoss() run.

Hello SilverSurfer1,

It would not be possible to cancel an order generated with a set method.

You would need to use exit orders instead, or control the trailing behavior with logic.

Hi
I would want you to implement the feature "cancel an order generated with a set method."
It seems strange to read that "It would not be possible to cancel an order generated with a set method.".... Really strange.

Hello AlexMocc,

Set methods are intended to be Set once and forgotten and left to NinjaTrader to manage. These are not intended to be cancelled and are intended to keep working even for new entries.

Orders that you want to update or cancel are intended to be Entry and Exit methods (or the unmanaged approach SubmitOrderUnmanaged()).

I will submit your request for Set methods to be cancelled even though this is not the intended purpose.

Once I have a tracking ID for this request I will post in this thread for future reference.
