    Strategy Builder ...how to 3xATR?

    I'm non-programmer, but I'm trying to build a strategy with SB. An I have a questions:
    1. Is there a possibility to do some math operations with inputs and indicators (e.g. set buy stop at H+3xATR, or set SL @ 3xATR from position start)?
    2. There is any solution to use value of spread in forex testing? If I test strategy only by last price, I think that can be risky to use results of backtesting.

    Hello JRKFCH,

    Welcome to the NinjaTrader forums!

    1) Most of the math will require working with the code. When using the strategy wizard, you only have the offset field available for performing addition & subtraction.

    2) The bid/ask spread will typically not be available to you during a backtest. You may consider setting a slippage value for your backtesting. This is slippage in pips per fill. This setting is available whenever you run the strategy or backtest.
