strategy questions

[mmtrader]

Support,

Have a few strategy questions, can you please answer them:

1)In a strategy, is there any sample code, showing how to send the buy order, stop order and profit order so that they are in a OCO, without using a atmstrategy?

2) Also would it be possible to load a strategy on a chart,but manually start it with a "short cut key" or by pressing a single button?

Thanks

Hello,

Thank you for your forum post.

Please see the following thread a user recently posted about using OCO without ATM Strategies.

Here is the closest sample code to submit protective orders without an ATM Strategy:

Also, as per your question on the hotkey currently this is not possible Unfortunately.

Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

Thanks Brett.

Can I request NT support to consider this feature:
A feature to activate a strategy on a chart,so that the strategy which is already loaded on the chart can be fired by a click of a button or may be by a hot key.

Would it be possible to program this feature in NT7?

Thanks
