How do I submit an order in NinjaScript to use a selected ATM Strategy?

[tonystarks]

I have an ATM Strategy that has a target, stop loss and moves the stop loss after a certain amount of ticks in profit. I want to be able to use a strategy created with NinjaScript to run that ATM Strategy when the strategy triggers an order. How do I go about doing that?

Actually, it seems like the "Algorithmic Trading with NinjaTrader" course on Udemy has a section on this. It seems to be working so far.

Here is a template in case anyone is interested.
