Auto Attach Indicator to Trailing Stop

[jrp2099]

Hello, I've found many other threads with others asking for this. What's the best solution at present? I currently use an ATM to enter with a target and a runner. I manually attach the trailing stop on my runner to an indicator on the chart. This works fine in slow markets but I would rather it be automated as I miss out on many trades because the market runs away before I can run through the steps to manually attach even though I'm pretty fast with my mouse. Any suggestions and direction much appreciated.

Hello jrp2099,

Thank you for your post.

The only automated way to achieve what you are describing is to program something using a NinjaScript strategy. If you are familiar with NinjaScript and would like some information about how to achieve this, please contact scriptingsupport(at)ninjatrader(dot)com. Otherwise, you can contact vendorsupport(at)ninjatrader(dot)com for list of a NinjaScript consultants that you could hire to program this for you. Outside of NinjaScript, there is no 'automated' mechanism for attaching an order to an indicator within NinjaTrader.

Please let us know if we may assist you any further.

Did you finally find your solution? I was looking for attaching my trailing stop to an indicator too.
