Enter Automatically but exit manually?

It would not be recommended or supported to manually modify your strategies orders without using the ATM Strategy methods.

You could very likely end up with unexpected things occurring.

Hello Boonfly8,
Thanks for your post.

You would want to use the ATM Strategy Methods to do this. In this way you can use the NinjaScript strategy to generate automated entry signals and once entered, you can delegate exit management to an ATM strategy which allows you degrees of manual control over how to close out of a trade.

Additionally, there is a SampleATMStrategy you will find in the NinjaScript editor that you may find useful in creating your strategy.

Hey Josh,

There is no way to just put in a simple limit order on the market to offset? It has to be done via ATM strategy?

Is this possible? Where an automated strategy will place entry and stop orders only and the user has to exit the trades manually?
