    Had a few questions on using an EMA Crossover with price on the Stragety Builder


    Hi there! I had a few questions about using the Strategy Builder
    1. Is it possible to set a condition to execute a trade when price crosses a certain EMA? If so could you point me towards a tutorial on how to do this?
      • Could we couple this condition to trade with a predominant trend on a specific time frame? (ex: like when volume is pushing to the upside or downside)
    2. Are we able to lock in profit after X amount of ticks and let the trade run until it hits our profit target in the strategy builder?
    3. Can we have two strategies running at the same time that only execute under certain conditions?
    4. Where can I learn more details about using the strategy builder outside of the webinar?

    Hello tradetofreedom,

    Thanks for your post and welcome to the NinjaTrader Forums!

    It appears you have created a duplicate post and so I will link that post to this one. It also appears you have written into us directly and I will respond to that e-mail shortly. We ask that when asking for help that you only create one support forum request OR write to us as we do not wish to answer the same questions 3 times which can happen. Thanks for your understanding.

    I will link your other forum post to this one for the answer and I will send you an e-mail reply pointing you to this forum post for the answers.
    Reference:

    1) Yes, we have a strategy builder tutorial and I will link to all of the reference resources to help your understanding of the strategy Builder.
    1a) Yes, you can create multi time frame strategy in the strategy builder and can use indicators on other time frames as part of your strategy

    2) With only one contract no. You could enter with more than one contract and specify different targets for each.

    3) Yes, you can run as many strategies as you wish however we recommend only running one strategy per instrument. Strategies will run independent of each other and will maintain their positions but when run on the same instrument and same account you will have conflicts with the account position unless you have more than one account. Youi can certainly experiment with the sim101 account to see what would happen.

    4) Links below are all we can provide. You might also search the forums for specific topics related to the area of interest.
