atm strategy details

[gordongekko]

Can I take the exit code used in my strategy and make an atm strategy out of it or are there limitations to what the built-in atm strategy can use? I'm mainly referring to custom exit logic that is more complex than the default trailing stop options available when using strategies and relies on data from both price action and traditional indicators

Hello gordongekko,

Thanks for opening the thread.

ATM strategies initiated from NinjaScripts cannot be managed by NinjaScript methods in the Managed Approach or Unmanaged Approach. NinjaTrader treats ATM strategy orders as manual submissions, and any ATM strategy management by a NinjaScript strategy must be done through the supported NinjaScript ATM strategy methods. You could use your own custom logic to control these methods, however.

I've attached publicly available documentation below for additional notes on usage.
