Ninja Trader Strategy Builder - Question regarding multiple entry's on one strategy.

[Harrylwd4]

Hi There,

I am fairly new to this so please bare with me if this is a silly question. I am trying to create a strategy where I have a buy order made straight away and if the price goes against my trade by x amount of pips another buy order is placed.

This is a fairly simple thing to put together I thought. I have made a buy order and a buy limit order in the 'conditions and actions' section. For some reason when I backtest this both orders are opening pretty much next to each other. Could someone please confirm the exact process of placing a limit order on the same strategy as a buy order?

Thank you in advance.

Harry

Hi Harrylwd4, thanks for your note.

Make sure your "Entries Per Direction" property is set to 2 for this. That will allow a market order as well as the limit order.

Please let me know if this does not resolve your inquiry.
