Unmanaged Approach Error: "OCO orders cannot be modified....

[bjunaid]

Thanks for the explanation. I agree, I read NTs documentation/help guide and I want to implement that safely because my connection is not that great.
I like the simulated orders because I am noticing that some of my stop losses are getting tagged and the price goes back up/down to the profit target. I am not sure if there are algorithms out there that are able to analyze open stop and target orders or I am just getting into bad trades?

"I am not sure if there are algorithms out there that are able to analyze open stop and target orders or I am just getting into bad trades?"

Apart from the link below software does not come to mind. Others might have more info.

"because my connection is not that great."

When your connection is not good and/or you are seeing NT bog down with Data Lag sometimes what we see on the chart and the prices the strategies see are painfully out of date and that can lead to disappointing performance on short term orders. .

1 - " ... because my connection is not that great ... are able to analyze open stop and target orders .."
Just by capturing "snapshots" at lots of points in the code from a Microsoft High Performance Stop Watch, enabling Order Tracing using Print() statements or exporting CVS files with the results, combined with lots of heads down studying there can be much less mystery about what is happening when. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dot...ew=netcore-3.1

2 - " .. are able to analyze open stop and target orders .."
The software below can extended with much more data capture than is included to help clarify stops. The software could also be extended to help answer even more questions.

Hi Hedgeplay

Thanks you for this information. I reviewed the links and I really appreciate this information.
Do you know a good resource for finding Algo trading strategies that have been tested and show good results.
In my current strategy I want to have multiple entry signals For example, GBar above 50SMA enter long, below RedBar below 50SMA is enter short.

Thanks,

"Do you know a good resource for finding (Ninjatrader) Algo trading strategies that have been tested and show good results."
No.

1) If you search the support forum pages hard, real, real hard you might find a few strategies. Maybe strategies in these forum pages than on the User App Share.
2) There some starter strategies posted on the https://ninjatraderecosystem.com/user-app-share/, which apart from strategies is a worthy of time.
3) If you join the futures.io web site and look in the download sections, discussions and NT7 to NT 8 conversion conversations you will find a few examples.

If you are new to Ninjtrader I personally think paying the $100 to join Futures.io Elite group and ~$150 one-time fee to get access to most of LizardTrader's (Fat Tails) indicators are worthy investments.

Also with the network reliability and delay issues you mentioned consider/check out the VPS's advertised in the banners at the top of forum pages by Speedy and Chart VPS vendors.

" I want to have multiple entry signals For example, GBar above 50SMA enter long, below RedBar below 50SMA is enter short."

This sounds to me a very simple, common strategy approach and I think you will find help here in the form of:
1) Strategy Samples that came with your NT8 install "Sample..."

2) Many example samples Zip files posted in the help forum by NT Help Techs (search hard in these forums .. search combos like "Crossover ZIP"

3) Video training on using the Strategy builder.. using it and looking at the code it built for you to see how & where things are correctly configured in NinjaScript.

4) A good study and leverage of resources at these links
https://ninjatrader.com/support/help..._resources.htm
https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...indicator2.htm
https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...?strategy2.htm // a few Starter Example Strategies here
https://ninjatrader.com/support/help.../nt8/?tips.htm

5) **** After making a good start and then you get stuck posting the strategy work you have completed so far and ask questions. The NT folks will steer you in the right direction.

6) Strategy downloads from the User App downloads https://ninjatraderecosystem.com/user-app-share/ and Futures.io

By the way .. if you are completely new to Ninjatrader I would avoid Unamanged orders until you get a solid foundation of base strategy designs to work with.

Have fun..
