Make Stop1 = 0 in ATM

[webus]

My strategy uses some kind of ATM.

1. For example, in the ATM settings, the Stop1 or Target1 level is not set.
How can I use AtmStrategyChangeStopTarget () (or some other way) to set the stop level I need?

2. For example, in the ATM settings, the Stop1 or Target1 level is set.
How can I completely remove the stop level I need using AtmStrategyChangeStopTarget () (or some other way)?

Hello webus,

Thanks for your post.

To use an ATM in a Ninjascript strategy you have to use an ATM template that is already configured. ATMs have a stop level although they do not need a profit target.

The method AtmStrategyChangeStopTarget () https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...stoptarget.htm does allow you to dynamically change the stop and/or target of the existing ATM. The example in the help guide shows an example of tieing the stop level to a moving average.

If you look at the code of the SampleATMstrategy in your NinjaTrader, it provides another example of using AtmStrategyChangeStopTarget () .

I may not be understanding what you are asking or wanting to do, if so, please add further context to clarify.

1. Can I set the TakeProfit level for ATM trade from the Strategy if there is no TakeProfit level in the ATM template?

2. Can I remove StopLoss level for ATM trade from the Strategy and leave, for example, only TakeProfit level?

Hello webus,

Thanks for your reply.

1) No, you cannot add a profit target to an existing ATM template that does not have one.

2) No, all ATMs require a stop loss level.
