    Loss Trigger in Custom Stop Strategy Parameters

    Is it possible for me to enter a negative number into the 'Profit Trigger' box? Right now, it won't let me do that. Basically, I want to move my stop as soon as my loss get to a certain number. I don't want to go thru the process of creating a new custom script ATM strategy when this can be easily done when I am allowed to have a negative profit trigger (which is a loss trigger). Can someone help show me how to have a loss trigger like this? Please see screenshot below for what I am talking about

    Hello affilife ​,
    Thank you for your post.

    It's not possible to have a negative Profit trigger value, since the Auto Breakeven feature is designed to move your stop loss only when you have a profit.
    You can also review our Help Guide on Auto Breakeven: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help..._breakeven.htm

      Thanks for the reply. If I want to create something like that to allow negative profit trigger (loss trigger), how can I go about doing that?

        Hello affilife,

        Thanks for your post.

        You could consider creating a custom NinjaScript strategy that uses Exit methods to submit and control stop loss/profit target orders.

        Below is a link to a forum post with helpful information about getting started with NinjaScript.
