limit number of trades per day

[affilife]

I am using NT to manually trade futures /ES . I would like to have a limit for the number of trades per day. Once I hit this limit, I can no longer submit trades for the rest of the day. How can I achieve this? Can someone provide a bit instruction on how I should go about doing this?

To clarify, I am NOT trying to develop a strategy. I would like to trade manually and let NT stop me from trading if limit exceeded.

Hello affilife,

Thank you very much for your post.

Many risk settings, such as a daily profit target and daily loss limit, can be set directly in the NInjaTrader Dashboard.

For further information, please take a look at the HelpGuide below:

While it would not be possible to lock the account after a specific amount of trades per session, it would be possible to set a contract limit from our end.

This would limit the number of open contracts you can have in specific instruments or instrument groups (e.g. on the ES, or all Micro Futures).

If you would like to know more about setting this limit, please reach out to us directly at support (at) ninjatrader (dot) com.

Please don't hesitate to let me know, should you have any further questions!
