bracket a order in unmanaged mode

[cicondo]

Hi,

I like to implement a strategy in unmanaged style because you told me that it is not possible to place 2 Orders simultaniously to trade a breakout idea. Normally I would place a sell and a buy limit order. If one gets filled the opposite order has to be canceled. I use the oco id to manage this.

If I have to implement this unmanaged, how should I implement the stop loss and target bracket? How to set an association to the entry order? Should I use the same oco id as I had set to the entry? Unfortunately there is no clear documentation for this kind of trading.

Please advice :-)

Sincerely
Markus

Markus, correct best suited would be here the unmanaged mode available in NT7 to experienced programmers - http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...d_approach.htm

The downside would be that for this to work the signal tracking is very limited, meaning you could not use the Set methods for the stop and targets order, you would need to code the exits then using the SubmitOrder command as well - the OCO id can be used for the 'linking' in your entry bracket as well as exit bracket of orders.

Thanks,
