Back-test a fully automated trade using paper money

[tedpenner]

I'd like to set up a backtest that will automate the entry and exit using SPY and SH.

These ETFs trade opposite of eachother.

Enter a long position by buying when condition is met for SPY
Use a call option that is 1 strike OTM
Buy when the price is below the HMA (20)
Sell when profit target % is met or allow the option to expire worthless.

Enter a long position by buying when condition is met for SH
Use a call option that is 1 strike OTM
Buy when the price is above the HMA (20)
Sell when profit target % is met or allow the option to expire worthless.

I haven't used the platform in years and am only testing without the full version of the product.

Assistance in setting up this test scenario is greatly appreciated.

Hello tedpenner,

Below I am providing a link to a forum post with helpful information about getting started with NinjaScript and c#. Be sure to watch the 'Automate Your Trading with NinjaTrader's Strategy Builder' training video.

NinjaScript Strategies at this time cannot trade options.

Where are you getting stuck? Do you have a base NinjaScript Strategy that is coded that is causing errors we may assist with?

I knew there would be a catch. It couldn't do it 10 years ago either. Oh well.
