    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.

        My colleague Chelsea has created educational examples of strategy builder breakeven and trailing stop in the strategy builder here that you could view also:
