Multi-parameter ATM strategy

[Cicero]

HI,

Newbie question: I have combined the SampleATMStrategy with the SampleMACrossover for a Long Scalp. How do I add a second parameter (such as Double Stochastic < 20) to the "if" code? Is this correct?

if (orderId.Length == 0 && atmStrategyId.Length == 0 && (CrossAbove(SMA(8), SMA(20), 1)), (DoubleStochastics(10) < 20, 1))


And secondly, why do my ATM strategies show up as the same "SampleATMStrategy" when I click on the Strategies Tab, even though I give them individual names in NS Editor?

Thanks for your help!

Hello Cicero,

Thanks for your post.

Ninjascript is based on C# programming language so if you are not familiar with that you may want to search on-line for a C# tutorial to help your understanding.

In this case the "&&" means a logical "AND" so you would write something like:

if (orderId.Length == 0 && atmStrategyId.Length == 0 && (CrossAbove(SMA(8), SMA(20), 1)) && (DoubleStochastics(10)[0] < 20))

Note that writing the indicators methods directly in place will work however it is not a "best Practice" and we recommend using private instances, as described in this section: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...tm#Performance

"And secondly, why do my ATM strategies show up as the same "SampleATMStrategy" when I click on the Strategies Tab, even though I give them individual names in NS Editor?". In a Ninjascript there are 3 places where the names should match, the file name, the Public class name, and the "Name = field in State.setDefaults. Please check that each script has the 3 matching areas.
