How do I place a trailing stop

[iceman2020]

when my order is filled on NT8 I would like to have a trailing stop. Either at the onset of the postion
or perhaps adding it after I am plus a few tick. How do I do that?

Hello iceman2020,

You can use an ATM strategy to automatically submit a stop loss when your entry order fills. You can find information and a video on ATM strategies at the link below.

The Auto Trail can be used to have the stop loss trail the market.

We did a video about 5 years ago when NT8 first came out on how to do a trailing stop ... examples and the pretty simple steps to doing it ... https://youtu.be/1cvalp5vHpI

You can also do a lot more complex things with it ... better known as ATM's... super helpful feature of NT.
