Delay strategy position entry after profitable trade

[jngrim]

I would like to delay my strategy from entering a a new position after having a positive resulting trade. Is there a way to ignore the next signal that comes from the strategy?
thanks


Also, how can I use a DOM ATM template to manage the stop loss and profit targets? How does the strategy know how many contracts were taken off after profit target is hit? I am new to programming in NT7 and .NEt for that matter.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,

You can use your performance statics to determine how you would like your strategy to run after positive or negative trading results. We have a few reference samples that will demonstrate this:

If you would like to use the ATM Template from the DOM, you will need to call an ATM Strategy method. We have a SampleATMStrategy that you can look at from Tools--> Edit NinjaScript--> Strategy

If you're using ATM Strategy methods, you can use GetAtmStrategyMarketPosition()
to determine the current market position after the target has been hit:
