Strategy becomes inactive when I press "Close" button on Chart Trader

[AntonTymoshchuk]

Hello everyone!

I developing a strategy. My strategy name is "SAT4".
I faced a problem : When I press "Close" button on Chart Trader, my strategy becomes inactive so that "Enabled" check mark in the "Strategies" becomes empty. I noticed that when my strategy is active there is "SAT4" label on upper left corner of my chart window, and when I press "Close" button it changes on "(D) SAT4".

Help me please!

Hello AntonTymoshchuk,
Thanks for your post.

A NinjaScript strategy is a self contained automated trading system, and orders generated are live. Canceling strategy-generated orders manually can cause your strategy to stop executing as expected. If you wish to manually cancel an order, terminate the strategy itself.

If you want to be able to manually manage orders submitted by your strategy you will need to look into the ATM Strategy Methods.

Hello NinjaTrader_JoshG ,
Thank you very much for your answer.

I understood this feature of the strategies, and I will make a few changes in my strategy, and I will use ExitShort(…) and ExitLong(…) methods.
