Order confirmation question

[Conceptzx]

I'd like to build an add on that enables oder confirmation if I trigger it through a bad day of trading so I can still trade but add an obstacle is there anything I can access for this?

Hello Conceptzx,

Thank you for your post.

Apologies, I'm not clear on what you're asking for exactly. What kind of obstacle do you want to add?

[Conceptzx]

OK. I'd like to build an add on that would calculate a trailing drawdown, so when the account value rises, it has a maximum value to look at minus the trailing drawdown, similar to how some prop firms work, but if the value is below the trailing threshold, the add on will enable order confirmation when you try to submit an order within ninjatrader. Sort of a soft daily trade limit.

Hello,

You can create your own MessageBox window that will pop-up before submitting further orders according to your custom logic.

Below is the Help Guide page for MessageBox.
