    Clarification wrt SetStopLoss cancellation

    Hello,

    I want to make sure that I am understanding the documentation correctly with respect to SetStopLoss and its life cycle.

    https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...d_approach.htm

    On the above page it states the following:
    • By default, orders submitted via Entry() and Exit() methods automatically cancel at the end of a bar if not re-submitted
    Is this also applicable to SetStopLoss()?
    Is SetStopLoss() automatically cancel at the end of a bar is not re-submitted?

    In other words, there is no isLiveUntilCancelled parameter for SetStopLoss().

    Therefore, if I used something similar to the following code, is it necessary to resubmit the SetStopLoss() for every OnBarUpdate() that is called on the primary series for a multi-time frame strategy?

    Code:
     protected override void OnExecutionUpdate(Execution execution, string executionId, double price, int quantity, MarketPosition marketPosition, string orderId, DateTime time)
    {
    
         if (execution.Order.OrderState == OrderState.Filled)
         {
                stopOrder = SetStopLoss(CalculationMode.Price, someValue);
    
         }
    
    
    }

    Hello Epistemophilic,

    Thanks for your first post on the forums!

    The set methods will continue to provide the orders until the entry position is closed, there is no need for additional coding.
