TRAILING STOPS IN THE STRATEGYBUILDER. how to controll?

[dtaylor]

I don't see any of the variables for trailing stops in the Stradegy Builder that I have in the ATM maneger. Is it possible to create a traiing stop like in screenshot in the stradegy builder?

Hello dtaylor,

Thank you for your post.

ATM strategy templates can not be used in the Strategy Builder. That being said, there are ways to use strategy logic to customize the profit trigger, stop loss, and frequency in the Strategy Builder so that they behave similarly to the ATM Strategy Manager settings. My colleague Chelsea has created a Breakeven example and a Trailing stop example using the Strategy Builder. The examples may be found in the following forum post:

Once you have downloaded the .zip file from that page, you may import the strategy into NinjaTrader by going to Control Center > Tools > Import > NinjaScript Add-on. Select the downloaded .zip file. Once imported, you may view the strategy from the Strategy Builder by going to New > Strategy Builder > select the strategy from the dropdown menu > Next.

For additional information on using the Conditions and Actions in the Strategy Builder, please refer to the following help guide links:
