Trying to Build A Strategy (Newbie)

[StrongLikeBull]

Hello,

I am looking to build a strategy on the 1min chart of the ES. It seems easy but I am new to this so maybe it isn't. I want it to trade from NY Market Open to close, but with the ability for me to edit these time windows.

Indicators I'd be using are:
Bollinger band (set to 1.6 STD deviation) and only using the middle band
Volume and VOLMA - Volume has to be over the 14 VOLMA

Requirements:
Candle closes within 2 ticks of the middle Bollinger while also having volume above the 14 VOLMA and also being at least 10% larger than just the previous candle.

Entry/Profit/Stop Loss:
Entry would be at the close of the signaling candle. Stop would be 1-2 ticks below the low/high of the signaling candle. Profit would be 50% of the distance from the entry to the stop (.5R)

Both shorts and longs.

Here are some examples


Ive been watching videos of how to build a strategy on the strategy builder but still having issues figuring out how to get all of this setup.


Here is what I have so far:



But there is where I have a hard time figuring out how to set limit order at close price of candle, how to set the stop, and how to set the TP. I tried in the image below but its just my best educated guess.



Any guidance would be appreciated, thanks!

Hello StrongLikeBull,

The stops and targets page cannot be used to dynamically set prices to the orders, those are for constant offset targets. You can see an example of creating a stop order that uses a custom prrice in the following link: https://forum.ninjatrader.com/forum/...596#post806596

How do the conditions look?

Hello StrongLikeBull,

I am not certain what you are asking, are you asking about the sample that I had linked to? If so you can download and import that sample to see how the conditions look.
