ATM stop-loss strategy

[tragdergreg]

Hello

I'm fairly new to NT and never used the ATM Strategy menu.

Normally I just trade market orders and then add a stop after entry but I would like to attach an automatic stop-loss when filled with either a market or limit order.

I normally trade YM so if I wanted a 30 point stop how would I setup the ATM strategy?

Regards

Hello tragdergreg, thanks for your post.

For a 30 point stop loss set the Parameter Type to "Ticks" and set the stop loss field to 30 since the tick size for the YM is already 1$. You can leave the profit target field at 0 for no profit target order.

Best regards.
